Elle is putting limoncello — that bright, citrus-sharp yellow more at home in a summer glass than a fall closet — on trial as the season's defining color. We like a claim that has to earn itself, and a hue built for warm months arguing its way into cooler ones is exactly that kind of claim. Whether the case holds by October, we're watching for wherever that citrus note turns up first.

The American Set on film — also on Instagram.

With reporting from Elle.
