Most Wanted

Sun-drenched days and balmy evenings are the best parts of summer vacations. Whether you’re planning a trip or simply in need of a sartorial update, reach for this season’s defining colors in muted purple and bright orange. Lavender made multiple appearances on the SS22 runways, and we’re embracing the color’s soothing energy in our vacation wardrobes. One such piece is Khaite’s ‘Andrina’ dress with a couture-inspired dropped skirt and ethereal ruffles – the perfect partner to Chloé’s ‘Woody’ flats. Abbi Minchin, NET-A-PORTER’s junior market editor, describes the sandals as a personal favorite that are suited for exploring foreign locales.

“I’m heading to Greece this month for a wedding, and Chloé’s slides are the ideal shoes for strolls along the cobblestone streets,” says Minchin. “They have a somewhat cult appeal, and this season the brand has added a summery twist by incorporating colorful embroidery. On hot days, my go-to pairing is Khaite’s lightweight cotton dress. It’s flowy and beautiful, has a roomy, oversized fit for added comfort, and the lilac hue will look great with a tan. I like to keep my jewelry simple while on vacation, so I would complete the look with small earrings or a minimal chain necklace – and a mini bag for those vacation essentials.” After dark, dress up Khaite’s billowy number with Mach & Mach’s crystal-embellished flats, which are guaranteed to bring a dash of high glam to your Instagram feed.

For the all-important accessories, Anita Ko’s gold-and-diamond ‘Louise’ necklace has the versatility for everyday wear and an elegant sparkle that pairs well with an evening gown. A favorite jewelry style of Dua Lipa, Eéra’s signature ‘Chiara’ snap-hook earring mixes yellow and white gold for an industrial design that is best stacked with the label’s other statement ear candy. Extend the glistening details towards your wrist with Loewe’s ‘Bracelet’ bag. The chic, sculptural design features high-shine golden clasps at each end that fasten together so the bag can be worn around the wrist.

When city style is the mood of the day, tangerine-hued pieces will have you feeling energized and looking like a fashion insider. Style Petar Petrov’s ‘Lois’ blouse in zesty orange as the centerpiece of your outfit, and pair with a wardrobe staple like Alaïa’s high-waist, straight-leg blue jeans. Complement the bright orange and classic denim with the curvilinear pattern on Valentino Garavani’s ‘VLOGO’ tote and finish the look with minimal sunglasses by Saint Laurent Eyewear.
