At the beginning of summer, Vogue’s fashion team shared their seasonal fashion predictions. One was the return of the long-maligned neon brights. It looks like Hailey Bieber finally had a chance to skim and put it into practice. Forget butter and lemon, Hailey is on the fluro yellow train with the rest of us.
The Rhode beauty founder stepped out for dinner at her favorite Sushi Park last night, where she was photographed in an acid yellow vintage Dolce & Gabbana camisole top with cream lace detailing on the bust. She paired the statement top with tailored black pants that feature a slight kick flare, some strappy black sandals, and a soft, slouchy black shoulder bag. Other accessories included some wired headphones (amping up the outfit’s nostalgic beat), black oval sunglasses, and a plastic zig-zag hairband that she’s been making good use of—also very noughties.
It’s a shade of yellow that looks particularly flattering and fab with a tan, which Bieber has built up from summering on the Greek island of Spetses with her husband Justin. Her vacation wardrobe featured a Frankies Bikinis set in baby pink, A.Emery leather flip flops, and separates from longtime fave Alfie. Since returning to LA, she’s been introducing more color into her workout uniform too, with CSB co-ords and a particularly sweet pink Alo workout bra and shorts.

Nii HAi’s Lili dress comes in a spectrum of colorful brights.
Never did I think I’d be returning to the color palettes of raving days gone by, but here we are: summer has seen many of us go big on the neon, from acerbic yellow to in-your-face orange and plasticky blue. It all just feels very ’90s, when high-vis hedonism first hit the runways of Versace and Mugler. Fast forward to today, and everyone from emerging designers like Sofia Testino and Attega to Michael Rider at Celine, Pierpaolo Piccioli’s Balenciaga, and Dries Van Noten are reveling in fluros. Indie brands like Of Planet Earth with their vibrant mini-dresses (this writer has this in aqua) and Nii HAi’s candy-colored halters and new swimwear line are leading the way. Fruity Booty and Gimaguas are on the case with bright lingerie and ballet flats respectively.
Don’t expect Hailey Bieber to deviate too far from her very well-established, buttery and creamy minimalist aesthetic: Fall soon approaches.
