About this look:
Resortwear staples in classic black and white will stand the test of time. Reliable, versatile pieces to turn to again and again. Travelwear that is so versatile you can wear them day and night, transform an outfit with ease and have you doing more with less.
In this look we take a classic black maxi to wear day (when knotted at the split) and night (let loose) layered with a long line Kimono if you like. 2 night time looks.
Wear the Kimono as a swimsuit coverup or sarong then as a head scarf or neck scarf to jazz up a day time look. So easy.
Keep the black and white colour palette tight for a classy look and team your resortwear with a wide brim hat, clutch and swimwear.
It's all about doing more with less. Happy summer holidays!
