Trunk Show: The Best Fashion Brands 2024

Consider this one-shoulder style your next show-stopping summer party or holiday dress. It's both sophisticated and comfortable. It features elegant ruching and pleating at the waist, a ruffled skirt and pockets, so you can feel relaxed even when you're dressed up.

Blue and white is a classic summer color combination, and this glamorous cropped style will become your next go-to, wear-anywhere staple. Pair it with high-waisted white jeans or the matching long skirt for an effortless look. This top is available in three other styles.

At first glance, this high-low dress seems sweet and demure, but the back-baring design makes it decidedly less demure. It features an elastic waist and straps, pockets, and a sleek round neckline. Wear it with flats for daytime or strappy sandals for dinner.

Dressy summer shorts can be hard to come by, but this relaxed, pleated pair is stylish and easy to wear. The raffia-trimmed waistband gives a summer vibe, and the botanical floral print is unique and unexpected. Pair it with a fitted top and neutral sandals for an instant outfit.

We love crochet in the summer, and this pointelle polo shirt will be a versatile addition to your vacation wardrobe. This short-sleeved design is both on-trend and easy to wear. Try it with high-waisted shorts, maxi skirts, and denim.

This maxi bodycon backless style is made from lightweight, flowing viscose and has a low back cut that makes it ideal for those steamy summer evenings. The placement of the navy and white stripes, vaguely nautical but in a modern way, makes them visually more elongating.

This swimsuit is both sporty and sexy, with tasteful side cutouts, wide straps and contrast trim. It's not too revealing in the back with moderate coverage, so you can wear it for lounging by the pool, at the beach or for water sports. This style is available in seven colors.

Crafted from cotton poplin, a wearable summer fabric, this dress is universally flattering. It features a sleek square neckline, corset seams down the centre and an A-line silhouette with lovely drape and movement. The Wills dress is available in nine colours, including navy and tangerine.

Raffia is a great summer material because it's lightweight, compact, and easy to shake off sand. We love the unique shape of this bag, which leaves just enough room for the essentials: a cell phone, wallet, and sunscreen, of course.

A take on the nap dress, this Bridgerton-inspired floral dress is flowy while still accentuating your figure. It features a smocked bodice with an adjustable belt that can be cinched for a snug fit, and the puffed sleeves add volume without being overwhelming. Note that the fabric can be slightly sheer, so you may want to shop one of the brand's jumpsuits to go with it.

A large tote bag is a staple you'll reach for every day in the summer, whether you're running errands or carrying your towels to the pool or beach. We love the roomy square shape and unexpected gingham pattern of this bag (it's available in mustard or black).

This white embroidered fabric is a summer staple, light and airy. While it sometimes comes in other colors, crisp white is a classic. The Henri top looks great tucked in or untucked, so it's worth experimenting with different waist styles. Offset the softness of this top's pleats and ruffles by wearing it with distressed jeans or military green.

This crocheted cotton tank top looks great with any linen summer pants, high waisted shorts, maxi skirts or even jeans. Take it for a weekend getaway or incorporate it into your everyday wardrobe.

For an easy-to-wear outfit, try this lightweight cotton maxi dress, which has an ankle-length length. Pretty embroidery and scalloped trims create a feminine touch, and the thick straps have buttons for adjustment.

Crafted from resin and gold-plated pewter, this high-impact pair of earrings can dress up any simple summer outfit. We especially love it paired with white for a light, mostly monochrome look.

Made from organic cotton, this lightweight dress features a chic O-neck detail and a halter neckline to accentuate your shoulders. It has wide, comfortable straps and smocking at the back bodice to prevent gapping. It's also lined, so you don't have to worry about see-through.

This recycled nylon and spandex ruffle bikini features adjustable straps to ensure the desired fit and support, and can even give the illusion of volume for smaller busts. The matching bikini bottoms feature a high waist and a modern cheeky cut.

Featuring a reworked geometric pattern and balloon sleeves, this 100% cotton sweater is sure to be a hit. Wear it with white jeans or a maxi skirt when the temperatures drop at night, and pair it with darker jeans to transition into fall.

A great sun hat can completely transform your summer look, and this raised palm leaf design is worth the investment. Choose between an ivory or black ribbon and wear it for running errands around town, reading your book by the pool, for a day at the beach, or gardening in style.
