With temperatures set to reach 30 degrees in London this week, there’s only one outfit on everyone’s minds at NET-A-PORTER HQ: “There’s nothing I crave more than a breezy white dress in summer. It’s the ultimate piece for staying cool on my morning commute yet put together enough for the office and any plans I have afterwards,” says NET-A-PORTER’s shopping editor, Viktorija Tomasevic.

The perfect choice for sun-soaked days, whether you’re in the city or escaping to the countryside, Dôen’s prairie-inspired ‘Emmaretta’ midi comes in weightless cotton-voile with a comfortable shirred waist and pretty ruffled straps. “The beauty of this dress is how easy it is to style for pretty much any occasion,” adds Tomasevic. “Slip it on with mesh ballet flats and a suede tote for the office, barely-there sandals and a raffia bag on vacation, and with heels for a summer event. When you consider cost per wear, it’s worth every penny.”

Speaking of summer events, extra-special occasions call for an extra-special shoe, and Amina Muaddi’s ‘Taylor’ mules more than fit the bill. Reissued in tangerine raffia and leather, they are such a fun way to inject color into your look and are guaranteed to receive countless compliments at parties. Finish with Ysso’s gleaming gold-plated ‘Cote’ cuff from our NET SUSTAIN edit and Dior Eyewear’s oval-frame ‘Cannage’ sunglasses.

If your heatwave plans involve lounging by the pool or taking a dip in the sea, then you’ll need a bikini worthy of the moment. Donde Esteban’s version is playfully printed with bananas painted by Colombian artist Ana Mercedes Hoyos in warm sunset shades and has a classic triangle cut with adjustable ties, so you can find your perfect fit (or unfasten altogether when sunbathing). Once you’ve dried off, pull on Agolde’s organic denim ‘Parker’ shorts and Eres’s cropped ‘L’Intemporel Gracieux’ top in cool brown linen – a chic beach cover-up on its own – for a relaxed lunch overlooking the ocean. Finally, fill Dragon Diffusion’s woven leather ‘Egola’ tote with all your beach essentials and personalize it with a printed scarf or mismatched bag charms.
