A curated roundup of the best new fashion arrivals, hand-picked by our editors
Vacation season is officially upon us, which means it’s time to indulge in light and effortless summer wares. Indeed, the beauty of warm-weather dressing lies in its ease: think one-and-done printed midi dresses, cool denim cut-offs paired with swimsuits that double up as tops, and slip-on-and-kick-off sandals. When it comes to denim, fashion-editor-approved Re/Done’s cool vintage shapes have a timeless appeal. Invest now and you will undoubtedly reach for these ’90s-style frayed denim shorts again and again, styling them with pretty tops, such as Dôen’s broderie anglaise-trimmed number, and statement sandals – Chloé’s ‘Meril’ flatforms are woven from multicolored cotton, embodying creative director Gabriela Hearst’s love of craftsmanship.
For summer dresses, Paco Rabanne can always be relied upon for sensual silhouettes decorated with pretty, playful prints. “The house’s ‘Sunrise’ pattern is featured across numerous pieces this season, including this dress, and is guaranteed to inject fun into any summer wardrobe,” says Maya Gunavardhana, NET-A-PORTER’s fashion assistant. “We’ve seen the rise of the cutout over the past few seasons, and while it can sometimes be quite an adventurous way to style yourself, this dress is a great way to subtly try the trend – the small, ruched cutouts at the sides make it possible to show off a little skin without giving too much away.” A pair of Ancient Greek Sandals’ wraparound-style sandals and a roomy bag – such as this Balenciaga cotton-canvas tote – are all you need for a look that will take you from a stroll on the seafront to sundowners. Just pop on a little beachside bling, such as Anita Ko’s 18-karat-gold hoops or Yvonne Léon’s twinkling signet ring dotted with tiny gray diamonds, when the sun sets.
