Step aside, Andy Sachs and Jenna Rink: Andie Anderson is becoming one of my rom-com fashion role models. If you haven’t seen How To Lose a Guy in 10 Days (excuse me, where have you been?), you have to watch this 2003 rom-com for some serious fashion inspo. Anderson, played by Kate Hudson, is a confident journalist who not only has a killer job, but an amazing sense of style, too. The movie is having a serious moment of resurgence on TikTok, and there’s one look in particular Gen Zers are loving: the iconic yellow dress from the breakup scene.
While yellow may get a bad rap as one of the hardest colors to wear, Anderson makes it look effortless in this satin backless gown. Who ever said blondes can’t wear yellow? If you’re looking to channel your inner Andie Anderson, here are 12 similar yellow dresses that are sure to turn heads. (Sadly, Matthew McConaughey isn’t included with any purchase.)
