Get in Line for Our Favourite Perennial Print
There’s a stripey silhouette for every body type.
This summer, we’re seeing stripes. From thick to thin and horizonal to vertical, anyone can style a stripey staple, while accentuating their own unique shape. So, if you’re looking for a fresh take on this enduring print, as well as a little guidance on how to wear it, you’ve come to the right place.
Show your stripes with our lineup below.
Candy Coated
For a playful twist on a tried-and-true classic, hit your style sweet spot with candy-coloured stripes. The vertical lines are figure lengthening, not to mention slimming. Extra points if paired with white jeans for a casual-cool summer look.
Fine Lines
Thin vertical stripes can elongate your body, making you look taller, especially when they run the length of your legs. Case in point: A one-and-done jumpsuit with a narrow pinstripe. All you need is a belt to create an hourglass figure in a cinch.
Ahoy, Summer!
Nautical stripes have become synonymous with summer, and a well-fitting A-line silhouette is the perfect piece to carry you seamlessly from a hot day to a balmy night. If you love the look but aren't sure it'll suit you, thinner horizontal stripes are universally flattering and are the perfect way to wear the trend.
Top to Toe
If subtlety is your thing, but you’re committed to going all in, a neutral brandy-hued stripe may be your best bet for a matchy-matchy moment. Reach for a striped button-down tunic and shorts combo that’ll elongate your frame and add a streamlined feel to your outfit.
Dynamic Diagonals
Diagonal or chevron stripes are a great way to create a sense of movement, while adding dimension to your outfit. They can help balance out your proportions and draw attention away from your midsection. Try a linen shirt dress with a waist-defining belt for a contemporary spin on a traditional fit-and-flare silhouette.
