The minimalist’s answer to a summer frock? A white mini-dress. Wear yours with pared-back jewellery or, if that all sounds too restrained, opt for a punchy red shoe, as seen on Claire Rose Cliteur.
Nothing beats a crisp vintage cotton dress, and we love how Lara Vidrequin Roso pairs this dress from a vintage market in France with a contemporary sweater vest.
A white linen halter-neck dress is the perfect dinner outfit for balmy Spanish evenings.
Waistcoats are perhaps the sleeper trend of the summer. It make sense – the array of linen styles, from high street to high end, makes a convincing argument for trying the look. We love how Maria de la Orden pairs hers, by Sydney label Posse, with a matching maxi skirt.
Not ready to go all white? Break up white shorts with yellow shirting. It’ll look clean, fresh and summer-like.
Nothing screams comfort like a tent-style dress with pockets. This dress with pintuck detailing and blue stitching by Cabbages & Roses is firmly on our wish-list.
White for the workplace? Yes, summer workwear is all about great suiting. A nude heel is the perfect ‘less is more’ finishing touch.
