White: How To Wear The Summer's Most Versatile Shade
White should not be overlooked as a key shade to keep your wardrobe feeling fresh and aesthetically clean this summer.
While people often associate white clothes with weddings, christenings, holiday wear and of course tennis, we say, why not incorporate this blissful colour into your everyday wardrobe? Adding flashes of bright white to your outfit is a great start, but try stepping up and colour-drenching in white head-to-toe, as we saw at Chanel, Alexander McQueen and Fendi during the SS21 season, for a truly luxurious look.
Nothing screams summer quite so loudly as the colour white, so moving into the warmer months you can incorporate white pieces in linen, cotton and silk as a blank canvas to build upon and create endless fun looks. Why not intensify that summer tan with a white poplin mini dress from Self-Portrait or accessorise any outfit with this season favourite Prada bag or even dance along the beach in a supper flattering crochet beach dress? White shoes have also made a big comeback over the last few years, so we'll be slipping on these white Birkenstocks or Off-White trainers (paying special attention our guide on how to keep white trainers just that, white) to finish off an ensemble. And if you cant face the extra washing, team a perfect white tee with a double denim look for immediate laidback cool that will see you through the hotter months with ease.
