Think Euro-summer, elevated but fun, like you’re grabbing aperitivi before a long pasta dinner. Color, prints, and personality encouraged.

The vibe

Vintage Italian countryside / Spritz-O-Clock

Polished silhouettes with a little flirt (but not formal)

Lightweight fabrics: linen, cotton, silk, airy knits

_

For Ladies

Midi or maxi dresses (slip dresses, fitted styles, flirty ruching, off-shoulder, halter)

Playful prints: polka dots, florals, vintage-inspired patterns, Mediterranean tiles/lemons

Bold “amore” colors: red, coral, tomato, blush, butter yellow, cobalt, olive

Dressy sets (matching top + skirt) or a chic jumpsuit also works beautifully

Accessories to lean into the theme

Statement earrings, a scarf/headband, cat-eye sunglasses

Woven/raffia bags, strappy heels, wedges, or dressy flats

*Please avoid: Anything too casual (athleisure, sneakers, distressed denim) or any white bridal-looking dresses

_

For Gentlemen

Linen or lightweight trousers with a crisp button-down (open collar encouraged)

Short-sleeve camp-collar shirts or polished knits (think Riviera)

Blazer optional — if you wear one, go light and summery

Patterns welcome: stripes, subtle prints, Mediterranean-inspired shirts

Footwear

Loafers, leather sandals, or clean dress sneakers (if they still feel elevated)

*Please avoid: Golf polos, gym shoes, ripped jeans, or anything super sporty
