UNITED STATES — Kate Hudson’s yellow dress from How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days is trending again after actress Lili Reinhart paid homage to the look while promoting a new project—driving searches for the 2003 rom-com and Hudson’s most iconic outfit.
Hudson starred opposite Matthew McConaughey in the comedy, which remains one of her highest-profile studio hits and a steady streaming favorite. The yellow dress scene is the visual most often reused in fashion throwbacks and TikTok recreations.

The movie in brief
Released in 2003, the film follows a magazine writer and an advertising executive in a mutual romantic setup. Hudson was in her early 20s during production; the movie still anchors her “rom-com star” search identity alongside later work such as Running Point and Song Sung Blue.
