From strawberries and cream at Wimbledon to garden parties at the Chelsea Flower Show, summer events in the UK call for outfits that can handle Pimm’s, paparazzi, and a patch or two of unpredictable weather. Consider this your cheat sheet for always dressing like you're on the guest list.
1. Tennis Tournaments: Off-Court Elegance
The Blake Mini Dress gives tennis-core not cosplay, making it perfect for channeling the spirit of Centre Court. Pair with the matching shorts for unexpected breezes and a ballet wrap top or tailored blazer when the sun dips behind the clouds. Finish with tonal accessories and a swipe of SPF.
2. Flower Shows: Modern Florals
Florals? For spring? Groundbreaking, if you do it our way. Swap ditsy prints for interesting silhouettes in lush, botanical hues. With a romantic, sculptural neckline and an asymmetric waist, the Lily Maxi Dress is your ticket to standing out among the blooms - our 'magenta pink' colourway is sure to upstage the peonies.
3. British Garden Party: Navigating Lawn, Luxury and the Elements
A garden party outfit needs to be as adaptable as the British weather - ready to tackle uneven lawns, prosecco spills, and the odd rogue shower. The answer? The Elsie Dress in black: breathable, beautifully cut, and looks like you tried even if you didn’t. Add statement earrings, wedges that won’t sink into the turf and a knowing smile when someone whispers, “You always look so put together.”
