For a chic holiday outfit that can take you from sun-lounger to calamari lunch, look for a lightweight cotton dress such as Reiss’ lace-detail style, which works as a cover-up over a Hunza G bikini. Coordinating accessories add elevating cohesion. Add a simple bangle for just a hint of gold.
A black spaghetti strap dress works best for smarter occasions such as sundown cocktails. Whistles’ linen style has a structured bodice for an added sense of refinement. The only heel worth considering in the peak of summer is a comfortable wedged espadrille, which will be walkable on cobbled European streets too.
Alfresco dining calls for glamour with an undone edge, making a silky slip the perfect choice. Try a statement printed style such as Faithfull’s Estrella Embellished Striped Mini for a hint of wow-factor. Keep shoes simple – Saint Laurent’s Babylone Embellished Leather Slides will go with every summer dress in your wardrobe. Add pizazz with a chunky gold bracelet.
When wearing spaghetti straps in the city, the trick is to stay away from anything too beachy. Hush’s Nami Crinkle Strappy Maxi has a clean empire-line silhouette and a maxi-length which offers comfortable coverage. Style it in a polished way with sleek black leather thing sandals and a black sisal tote.
