The ultimate summer dress

Johanna Ortiz is a favorite for the perfect summer dress. The brand’s lively prints, ruffle details and elegant silhouettes give a breezy, chic vibe for resort dressing. Plus, many of the pieces are made in the designer’s hometown of Cali, Colombia. Caravana is another go-to, with its simple, clean staples in beautiful textural fabrics – the pieces have an earthy yet refined feel that is ideal for an understated summer look. Finally, there's Toteme. The brand’s minimal and cool designs transition seamlessly from city streets to beach getaways, and really capture that clean, timeless aesthetic.”

A refined basket bag

“For playful designs, I love Loewe’s latest collaboration with Paula’s Ibiza. This season, the brand has introduced new shapes and colors to its selection of raffia bags, which are all handcrafted by artisans using natural fibers. Every piece feels fresh and fun and can be paired with anything in your summer wardrobe. For a refined staple, I always recommend Saint Laurent’s raffia bags, which effortlessly elevate any look. Isabel Marant also captures that carefree bohemian vibe perfectly, with bags that look as great for your daily commute as they do for a city break.”

Comfy sandals

“I love The Row for its exceptional quality. The brand’s sandals often have subtle design features that take them from simple and classic to elevated and unique. They’re not only comfortable but also super-versatile, making them the perfect choice for summer in the city. For something a little more bohemian, I would recommend adding Chloé to your vacation capsule. The label’s designs pair beautifully with summer linens and evoke a laid-back feel for SS23. Finally, for a touch of glamour, look to Aquazzura. Glistening embellishments and vibrant colors make this brand’s sandals a luxe alternative to evening heels; they’re striking while still being comfortable, making them a must for vacation.”
