shapes feel more modern than ever, layering

polka-dot blouses under all-in-ones, and Matin

reminded us of the enduring style chops of khaki

shorts. (With a linen shirt? Check. White tee?

Check. Black one-piece cossie? Check.)

Are you reading this thinking, “Well this is

all well and good for weekends but what

about work?” Resort may feel like an anti-

office season, but to write-off its corporate

potential is to seriously

underestimate it. Chloé’s ivory

slip dresses look just as good

with tailored blazers and

pumps as they do with strappy

flat sandals. And a pair of wide-

legged pants from Hermès are

as likely to elicit compliments in

the office kitchen as they are

over brunch with mates.

As with everything we’re

fawning over, the power is in

how you wear it. Get creative

• and ignore the rules.E
