In the endless march of fashion seasons, resort is sometimes unfairly shuffled to the back—after all, these are collections which not only assume that (a) you need more fancy clothes but that (b) you need them specifically to wear on your fancy, far-flung vacation, possibly to a private island where you have to know a guy and the landscapes are colors you’ve only ever seen in Call Me by Your Name. Who lives like this? (Besides your favorite influencer—Chiara Ferragni or Aimee Song, perhaps.) Even if your vacation plans are slightly less ambitious than this, there's still much happiness to be found in gazing upon the eclectic prints, bold colors, and diaphanous layers of this, the most extra and (some would say) superfluous of in-between fashion seasons.
From Altuzarra’s off-kilter take on the sailor dress to Dior’s dramatic homage to female rodeo riders, there’s enough inspiration here to make you not even care if you’re not leaving tomorrow to go island-hopping around the Aegean Sea. Just drink a mai tai on your fire escape and pretend you’re chilling in a palapa.
