Vibrant prints and effortless, airy silhouettes epitomise the style of an Italian summer. You may not be waking up in a Tuscan villa anytime soon, but that doesn’t mean you can’t embrace this timeless, Mediterranean aesthetic. These 4 brands have the Italian summer aesthetic down to a T, and here’s my favourite picks from each.   

So, what exactly is the “Italian Summer Aesthetic”?

Quintessential summertime fashion in Italy needs to be both enduringly stylish, whilst remaining practical in the warm heat. Channelling the earthy hues of a Sicilian sunset and eye-catching florals, outfits are often light and breathable, styled with effortless chic. Think casual mini dresses, co-ords and oversized linen shirts. Looks from the latest season of The White Lotus are all the extra inspo you’ll need.
