How to dress for a summer with style: a guide to the chicest summer outfits

Summer is an invitation to be carefree, to escape and to express your style with new freedom.

Between sun-drenched days, city evenings, and weekend escapes, your summer wardrobe evolves into a vibrant palette of fresh, dynamic pieces. In this article, we explore how to build refined, sophisticated summer outfits that are suitable for different occasions – with a special focus on garments designed for women with generous curves.

 

Summer wardrobe must-haves

 

 

 

How to choose summer skirts and trousers

 

The secret lies in the materials. The midi, slightly flared cotton crêpe skirt is the ideal piece for creating casual summer outfits. Perfect with an oversized shirt during the day or with a clean-cut top in the evening. It can even be worn to the office with a pair of low sandals.
For those who prefer trousers, the cotton bull trousers combine a utility cut with a summery texture, wear them with soft tops or sculptural bodysuits for a smart & cool effect.

 

Women's cardigans and tops: versatile summer garments


The flowing fabric top is a key piece for summer 2025: it adapts to the most diverse contexts; from office looks – worn under a lightweight blazer – to evenings on the terrace with a long linen skirt.

The cotton crêpe cardigan with lurex effect is the most versatile choice for completing the outfit and beating temperature changes: drape it over your shoulders or wear it open for a touch of effortless chic, even with the simplest of summer dresses. 

 

Practical and on-trend accessories for summer outfits

 

Every summer look finds its balance with the right accessory. The canvas shoulder bag combines practicality and style, with coated details and an adjustable strap. Perfect for both a city look and a day out, it is an easy match with neutral tones or brighter colours.

The leather trainers are a light-hearted choice to complete the ensemble with a sophisticated, casual touch: versatile and comfortable, they come with an interchangeable metal plate to change your look in a single gesture.

Always chic: summer outfits for every time of day

 

 

 

Comfort and refinement for the office

 

Working in summer can even be pleasant if you choose the right clothes. A combination such as sand-colour cotton trousers, a white top and a crêpe cardigan creates a professional, yet cool look. Casual women's clothes become elegant with the right styling: add a silk foulard and a belt to define the waist.

 

After sunset, let loose with summer apparel

 

Summer evenings deserve special looks. A long flowing fabric dress, a bright top over a midi skirt, or even a sleeveless summer suit: the important thing is to play with fabrics and volumes. Women's summer outfits should never be stiff: opt for soft pieces that move with you.


 

Lightweight holiday clothes for the weekend

 

One item to always have in your suitcase is a printed cotton blend jumper, ideal for livening up basic trousers or balancing out a neutral outfit.
The cotton drill safari jacket is perfect for cooler evenings and for when you need to add personality to even the simplest look.
Mix basic pieces with glamorous details. Say yes to sand, coral, khaki and bright white: colours that enhance your tan and reflect summer 2025’s sunny vibe.


Dressing for summer is not just about the weather, but the spirit. It's about choosing clothes that make us feel good, that look like us, that allow us to enjoy every moment with ease.
