–The Sarong

The sarong is a very practical beach piece, which has a lot to offer women who love practical clothing. It can be easily tied around the waist in just a few seconds, or transformed into a beautiful beach dress.

–Tunic/kaftan

The tunic/kaftan represents a summer garment combining the dress and the flowing blouse, equipped with a V-neck. Available in a wide variety of materials, such as fine cotton, silk, linen, chiffon etc., generally the tunic is of a length up to the knees.

–A long muslin tunic

Both models – the tunic and the kaftan are available in long or short versions. The short version can be worn as a blouse, combined with a pair of shorts or with a sheath skirt. Another advantage of this multifunctional piece is that it won’t take up much space in your suitcase.

–Casual style flowing pieces

Boho style lovers prefer to wear flowing beachwear in a casual style. You should therefore favor shorts and mini-skirts, associated with a flowing top or shirt. Such an outfit is ideal for a party at the beach or for an outing with friends.

–A fluid playsuit

A really practical piece that is worth the investment, the fluid playsuit is ideal to be worn over the swimsuit. Do not forget to combine it with a pair of glasses and a nice sun hat to make your look impeccable.

–Palazzo pants

Palazzo pants are a version of pants made of fine cotton fabric, with extra wide legs. It looks like a long flowing skirt and it is the ideal solution for women who prefer to wear pants than skirts.

The different versions vary depending on the length of the trouser legs. These can reach up to the ankle or completely cover it to make the legs look longer and slender. These pants are ideal for going out with friends, because there are really elegant and refined models. If you are looking for the right model, choose the classic cut and natural materials such as linen or soft viscose. You can experiment with prints or opt for a monochrome model.

–Navy stripes and fluid cuts

Navy stripes in blue and white or black and white are always a good choice for the summer months. The classic pattern is perfect for women of all ages and all occasions. Replace blue with red, to give your outfit a personal and more original touch.

–Maxi shirt dress

The maxi shirt-dress is a good solution to play the card of discretion at the beach. The long shirt dress will allow you to put a discreet accent here and there but without exaggerating. The length and color can vary as you like.

–Dare to use summer colors and patterns

To give a feminine touch to your look, opt for a shirt dress in bright colors and floral patterns. This way, you will not fail to be noticed at the beach. This trendy piece will become your ideal companion during your vacation.

–Maxi dress or maxi skirt

Maxi dresses and skirts are some of our favorites as part of on-trend beachwear. The wide variety of models, colors and patterns give you the freedom to buy at least one or two. Typical for summer, these dresses and skirts are available in versions corresponding to each silhouette.

-Off the shoulder dress

Off-the shoulder shirts, dresses and tops are definitely one of the top trends for summer. They have a lot to offer and flatter the female figure. By betting on this outfit, each woman lets her romantic side speak.

–T-shirt dress Or Oversized shirt

Oversized fashion enjoys great popularity among women, and not without reason. It is undeniably very comfortable! In order not to neglect the feminine touch, you can wear such a dress with a delicate necklace or with a beautiful elegant belt around the waist.

–Exotic accessories

As we mentioned, accessories should not be neglected to have a well-finished look. Match your outfit with a necklace and several bracelets in matching colors. Dare to use natural stones and experiment with the various styles.

–It’s the details that count

Crochet details, for example, are certainly in the spotlight during the summer. They give the outfit a bohemian and romantic touch. Wear a lace dress with the matching accessories in the same style and with a pair of gladiator sandals for a glamorous look at the beach and seaside parties.
