A holiday wardrobe should work harder than your everyday one — pieces that transition from beach to bar, pool to restaurant, and morning to evening without a full outfit change. Our summer holiday edit is built around exactly that: swimwear you can style beyond the beach, lightweight dresses that pack flat, and co-ords that look considered with minimal effort. Whether you're heading to Marbella, the Maldives, or a UK staycation, the right pieces make the difference.
The Brands in Our Edit
Beach Riot is the Newport Beach brand built for exactly this — bold-print bikinis, sculpting swimsuits, and activewear that crosses over into holiday dressing with ease. Frankies Bikinis brings a more refined California aesthetic — luxe fabrics, elegant silhouettes, and a palette that works from the pool to a rooftop dinner.
How to Build a Holiday Wardrobe
Start with two or three swimwear pieces as your base — a bikini and a swimsuit — then build outfits around them with cover-ups, lightweight dresses, and co-ords. Style a bikini top as an evening top with wide-leg linen trousers and strappy sandals for a beach-to-bar look. Pack a floaty midi dress that works over a swimsuit by day and stands alone at dinner. Choose a bold co-ord that can be worn together or as separates to double your outfit options without adding weight to your case.
