In the heat of high summer, it’s hard to believe cooler days lie on the horizon and before long we’ll want to trade carefree dressing for a more polished perspective. Begin your style transition in our pick of wear-today pieces designed with tomorrow in their sights.

The Advance Party

The wicker basket, the dainty flats, the sprinkling of gingham and broderie anglaise… The classic charm of French Girl styling seduces us every summer. Embrace it. Pack a picnic, slip into these delicately pretty designs, and picture yourself in Provence.

Parlez Vous Francais?

Childhood summers are a happy haze of playdates, park trips and kids’ clubs – and our latest edit is designed with those dreamy days in mind. Whether your little ones are off to camp or up to mischief in the garden, these playful treats will make golden memories.


Play Away

Picnic in your pannier, and it’s a windswept cycle down coastal lanes before the sea shimmers into view. The British beach staycation is a timeless delight – all sandcastles and seashells; salty chips and icy dips – and our classic buys have that charming sensibility in spades.

Coasting Along

In a six-decade career that took him from Bradford to Beverly Hills, David Hockney produced some of this century’s most iconic images. But his delight in saturated shades reached way beyond the art world, and today we celebrate the daily splashes of colour he inspired.

The Biggest Splash

Summer’s halfway point is the ideal moment for a mid-season reset – a hydrating tweak to your beauty regime, say, or a wardrobe update for staples showing the strain. Packed with post-heatwave refreshers, our dawn-till-dusk edit ensures you’ll see out the season in style.


Freshen Up

We may be basking in the heat of high summer, but style never sleeps. The pre-fall collections have landed, giving savvy dressers the chance to sport next-season’s style now. So step away from the sun lounger and shop your fashion future. You snooze, you lose.

Fast Forward

Shopping a holiday wardrobe can find us reverting to boho beach tropes. We’re all for packing the classics, but there’s no reason to leave out on-trend ideas. Invest in summer’s key pieces, and you won’t just look chic on far shores, you’ll stand out back home too.

Packing Heat

High summer is all about bold, beautiful colour: the fresh fruity zing of lemon yellow; the dazzling cyan of seamless sky blue; the tropical tone glossy palm green… Bring home these holiday hues and you’ll bask in their heat long after the season cools.

The Chroma Home

The mannish shirt anchors our wardrobes year-round; paired with a bikini or a sharp suit, it’s a piece that semaphores style. And as our summer round-up reveals, the right shirt will take you from airport to ocean without the Fashion Police feeling your collar.

Button It

As designs go, denim shorts are up there with fashion’s hero pieces: a carefree blend of boyish swagger and casually sexy cool. And the best bit? You can pair them with preppy blazers, crisp shirts or simple tees, and you’ll always look effortlessly dressed.

A Short Story

Laidback athleisure looks have long been a staple of stylish closets, but this season sees sporting chic adopt a true player’s stance – less runway more running track, luxe logos aside. Shop our pick of winning pieces and make fitness your new fashion flex.

Personal Best

Dream destinations deserve an equally dreamy wardrobe. So if you’re heading for a bucket-list beach getaway this summer, leave your love-worn cut-offs behind and upgrade your packing with vacation looks as perfect as the white sands and turquoise seas that await…


Paradise Found

Sunny days encourage us to extend our horizons beyond the back door, styling chic garden spaces, alfresco eating areas and secret sun-traps. Shop our elegant exterior upgrades – from seating to ceramics and cooking kit – and embrace the pleasures of life en plein air.

The Green Room

The Pimm’s has been mixed, the strawberries picked, the grass courts fed and watered. Wimbledon tennis club is tournament-ready, and we’re scoring the first ace with our edit of centre-court chic – winning looks for spectators and sportsmen alike. Play on…
