DRESSES:

SUMMER IN FULL BLOOM

A minimalist dress embellished with ruffles and decorative pleats, or perhaps with the equally coveted cut-outs? In timeless earthy shades, vibrant colors, and floral prints, or maybe in an innovative take on abstract patterns? There’s no better season to play with form than summer itself. Although designers, competing for the most interesting piece of the season, offer us so many options that choosing the perfect one isn’t easy, we’re here to help you face that challenge today and present the styles that deserve your special attention this year.

If you’re a fan of boho style, you’ll fall in love with the cascade-ruffled dresses by Ulla Johnson, the patterned designs by Zimmermann and IXIAH. If you’re searching for a casual piece that aligns with the quiet luxury trend, look to Scandinavian brands such as Toteme and Birgitte Herskind. Following the most popular influencers from Copenhagen, opt for loose-fitting silhouettes that will keep you comfortable even on the hottest days. Summer is also the perfect time to invest in a statement option for glamorous evening outings. The Attico and Versace are unrivaled pioneers when it comes to avant-garde constructions, so browse the latest collections from these Italian brands and select the details that will best reflect your personal style. There you’ll find not only bold colorways or sensual cut-outs, but also extravagant feathers, sheer tulle fabrics, and shimmering sequins.

A WIDE RANGE OF OPTIONS TO CHOOSE FROM

Saturated, neon, and even electrifying shades are covering every shoe model this year. We can’t deny that this fact excites us immensely. After all, there is no better way to elevate your spring looks than with accessories—or in this case, footwear—in bold, ultra-vibrant colors. With both lovers of elegance and streetwear enthusiasts in mind, we have curated a selection of shoes that will work effortlessly in classic as well as avant-garde outfits.

If you love extravagant heeled shoes, those from Victoria Beckham, Jimmy Choo, Bottega Veneta, or Saint Laurent will certainly live up to all your expectations. Colorful platforms remain a hallmark of Versace, but this season you’ll also find them in Giuseppe Zanotti’s collection. Perfect for spring, mules and sandals are the highlights of JW Anderson and The Attico, while innovative and comfortable sneakers take center stage at Chloé and Balenciaga.

SHORTS:

ULTIMATE COMFORT

Comfortable shorts are a must-have for the upcoming heatwaves. While design is important, it’s not the top priority in this case—as during summer, the greatest focus should be on the cut and fabric from which your chosen pieces are made. To make your search for the perfect model easier, we’ve put together a selection of styles that strike the perfect balance between comfort, eye-catching aesthetics, and—most importantly—versatility. Discover our top picks.

Patterned shorts are an essential addition to your summer wardrobe, so be sure to check out the options from Versace and Zimmermann. For silk designs adorned with this season’s hottest prints, look to the ‘La Vacanza’ collection. For linen shorts decorated with floral motifs, explore the portfolio of the boho-chic Australian label. Prefer a more minimalist approach? Denim shorts by Diesel or timeless cotton styles in classic hues from Toteme and Burberry are spot on. Style them not only with basics, but also with innovative silhouettes to create an endless number of looks for an endless variety of occasions.
Last but not least—one of the year’s strongest trends is shorts with a lingerie-inspired vibe, so don’t forget about the trendsetting pieces from Bottega Veneta.

ACCESSORIES:

IT'S ALL IN THE DETAILS

Although platforms came back into fashion several seasons ago, designers are still not giving up on this trend. With their spring-summer collections, they’ve proven that they still have plenty to say on the subject, and have expanded their offerings for the coming months with completely new and often unexpected models.

A perfect example of this are the latest designs from Alaïa, Alexander McQueen, and Versace. The collections from the first two brands have welcomed constructions inspired by the grunge style that dominated the 90s, while the Italian brand led by Donatella Versace has solidified its position as the leader of ultra-high footwear, releasing new 18-centimeter (7-inch) boots and expanding the color range of the now-iconic 'Medusa Aevitas' sandals. The Balmain fashion house wowed us this season with a fashionable leopard pattern, while Rick Owens captured hearts with the exquisitely crafted ‘Minimal Grill Beatle’ model. Much lower, yet still stylish platforms have appeared in the portfolios of Stella McCartney, Marni, and Chloé. Sometimes taking the form of espadrilles, occasionally loafers, but most often – fashionable sandals.

SHOES:

A STEP FORWARD

From this season's most coveted ballet flats to slides and sandals available in every possible variation—it’s time to choose your favorite summer shoes that you'll love for years to come. We've curated selections that are perfect for both your everyday strolls and unforgettable nights out in the city. We’re confident you’ll fall in love with every pair.

Starting with ballet flats adored by trendsetters—we recommend the latest designs by Alaïa, Jimmy Choo, Chloé and Maison Margiela. The most sought-after styles right now are those inspired by Japanese shoes—think mesh designs and the iconic Tabi cut. Slides and sandals from the portfolios of Fendi, Givenchy, Marni and Dolce & Gabbana also come with flat soles, ensuring reliable comfort. We’re especially taken with the Italian fashion houses’ designs—the Signature featuring a blue monogram and the Bianca in a vibrant fuchsia hue.
But how do you elevate these styles for a special occasion? The answer is twofold: Saint Laurent or The Attico. The French brand captivates us with crystal-embellished heels, while Gilda Ambrosio and Giorgia Tordini dazzle with their extravagant Devon heeled slides.
