6 fashion brands we’ll see everywhere this summer
Although restrictions are easing in many parts of the world, we’re not quite through with the relaxed silhouettes and muted tones of our lockdown wardrobes. As our attentions continue to shift from rarely-worn party dresses to comfortable, all-day attire, designers are responding by creating styles we can wear both on-the-go and sequestered at home. This summer, we’re looking for fashion that will ease us back into reality while keeping comfort in close proximity.
Take a step back from your go-to labels this season and check out these six emerging and well-established brands for chic spring and summer apparel.
Brand #1: SIR.
The Australian brand SIR. is delivering sleek cut-out dresses and feminine floral separates for spring/summer 2021. Style their stunning Ambroise cut-out linen midi dress with gladiator sandals and an oversized straw tote for a chic summer ensemble.
