Yellow has been a stable color on red carpets for years now. A lot of celebrities showed up in yellow dresses on red carpets and took our breaths away.
Remember Rihanna’s iconic 2015 Met Gala gown? Or better yet, yellow has been J Lo’s go-to color for the 2016 Golden Globes ceremony. Elizabeth Taylor even chose it for her 1964 wedding, which just shows you that yellow has been in fashion for nearly 60 years now!
If you want to join these celebrities and create an iconic yellow outfit, you’ll want to know what color hijab goes with a yellow dress.
And that’s what we’re here to help you with!
What Color Hijab Goes With Yellow Dress
Yellow can go with plenty of colors, including both neutral and bright colors. It can also be styled for all seasons if you choose the right color for it.
Here are all the colors you can wear with a yellow dress depending on the season.
For Summer and Spring
Summer and spring are all about bright color combinations and color blocking. Here are some colors that’ll rock your beach outfit:
White
We know what you’re thinking: white isn’t technically a color. But it is, and you’re going to use it to create a lovely outfit!
It’s no news that white goes with all colors. You can pair your yellow dress with a white scarf for an effortless, casual look.
It’ll look great on a bright yellow dress because it’ll balance out its radiance.
Blue
See how exquisite EMMA’s model looks with a yellow dress capped by a bright blue hijab?
Yellow and blue are contrasting colors, and while that means they won’t look good on the same wall, it means they match well for a summer outfit. Pair your bright yellow dress with a royal blue scarf, and if you have a pair of blue shoes, you’ll have created an effortless, chic outfit.
Not all shades of blue work with all shades of yellow, so you’ll have to choose at your discretion. For example, both pale and bright yellow shades work well with royal blue. However, mustard yellow better goes with navy blue. These two colors create such a dynamic pair!
Purple
Purple and yellow are the visual opposites of each other because they face each other in the color wheel. If you haven’t studied a color wheel, before, well, that just means they look pretty good together!
The good news is, yellow matches well with all shades of purple, whether they’re light or dark. Go for light shades if you’re opting for a beach look or going to a casual gathering. Meanwhile, for nights out, choose darker shades of purple instead.
You can also opt for a printed scarf that features both colors, like Emma’s Pastel Love. It’d balance well with a pale yellow dress because of its pastel shades.
For Autumn
Here are some awesome pairings with yellow for the autumn:
Orange
Orange is the IT color for autumn. During these short months, tree leaves are orange, sunsets are orange, and now your scarf will be orange too!
You’d have to be careful with these two colors, though, because they’re both on the warm scale. So, you’d have to break the warm tone using a neutral color. An off-white belt or a pair of white shoes would do the trick.

You can style a yellow dress with a printed scarf with shades of orange. Or, wear a solid-colored orange scarf and create a color block.
Brown
Brown is a close contender to orange for autumn outfits. It gives warm vibes, yet it’s not too warm that it only works for winter. Yellow and brown are perfect for the autumn because they’ll match your surroundings.
Pair your dress with a brown belt and a brown scarf, and you’re off to go! You can choose a printed scarf because brown alone may not be flattering on all yellow shades. Take the Mystic Woods scarf from Emma for example. It’d look dashing on a yellow dress.
For Winter
Winter has a limited palette of colors, yet you can still create an awesome outfit using wintery shades. Here are the suitable shades to pair with a yellow dress:
Burgundy
Burgundy is a trademark shade for the winter. It looks good on everyone, which is a huge bonus. You can pair your yellow wintery dress with a burgundy scarf for a warm look. If you wear a trench coat on top of your dress, it’d be the perfect addition to the outfit.
Black
Black is the ultimate color for all seasons, but matching it with yellow during the summer doesn’t seem right. That’s why it’s our choice for winter colors.
You can match your yellow dress with a black coat and a black satin scarf, and you’ll be ready to be featured in Vogue!
Printed Emma Scarves to Go With Your Yellow Dress
You don’t prefer solid-colored scarves? Well, you’ll be happy with this section then! Here’s a list of printed Emma scarves that’d go perfectly well with your yellow dress.
Pink Lemonade
Pink Lemonade features a beautiful watercolor-like design with soft blends of pink, yellow, and hints of orange. The pattern creates a gentle, dreamy effect that complements the yellow dress perfectly.
The subtle color gradients in the hijab add depth and interest to the solid yellow dress without overwhelming it. Additionally, the pastel pink and yellow tones in the hijab will look good on all skin tones.
Siwa
Siwa has a striking black background with intricate, colorful patterns in various shades including red, yellow, and green. The design is inspired by traditional motifs, and it includes touches of yellow, which tie it directly to a yellow dress.
The combination of the dark hijab with a bright yellow dress also creates a balanced look. Not to mention, the colorful accents in Siwa allow for versatile accessorizing, complementing the yellow while offering options to highlight other colors in the outfit.
Mon Cheri
Mon Cheri features a light background with vibrant floral patterns in red, pink, and blue. The design is bold and eye-catching, with large blooms scattered across the fabric. This hijab would work beautifully with a yellow dress like the one shown here because the cream base of the hijab complements the bright yellow, creating a soft contrast.
The overall effect of Mon Cheri is cheerful and spring-like, perfect for a sunny day outfit!
Daffodil Whispers
Daffodil Whispers has a delicate floral pattern that features yellow flowers and gray accents on a pale background. The yellow floral accents in the hijab would add a cheerful pop of color, which would go brilliantly with a yellow dress.
Citrus Blue
Citrus Blue has an intricate pattern primarily in shades of blue and white, with hints of yellow and floral elements. The design is a brilliant mix of geometric and organic patterns, and it pairs well with yellow, as shown here.
The blue and white pattern creates a striking contrast against the bright yellow, making both colors pop. On top of that, the hints of yellow in the hijab tie directly into the dress color, creating a cohesive look.
