A Classic White Dress
We think a classic white dress is an easy go-to during the summer, no matter what the occasion. Whether it’s a casual day out or a formal occasion, a white dress is a the perfect versatile, timeless staple for your sustainable wardrobe. They can be easily elevated with some simple jewelry and accessories, to embody minimalist elegance. Our top picks are from Olistic the Label, founded as the first French sustainable luxury brand. The Kiwa Dress in white is made from luxurious organic cotton poplin for greater comfort and lightness, ideal for the warmer summer days. Its zip neckline and short linen balloon sleeves gives this dress a feminine elegance while its belted waist flatters the silhouette. Another favourite is The Pluma Dress in white, distinguished by its pleated skirt for a resolutely feminine look. This maxi dress is made from GOTS-certified organic cotton poplin and affirms Olistics commitment to more sustainable fashion.
Timeless Staple Jewelry By Pippa Small
If you are looking for the perfect staple jewelry, look no further than Pippa Small’s new collection, featuring pieces you can wear as everyday staples and those for more special occasions. Each piece is handmade by artisans through one of the many foundations and communities she works with across the world, this includes – the arts foundation, Turquoise Mountain in Afghanistan, Myanmar and Jordan. She also works with artisans in Bolivia and Panama. The 18kt Gold Theia Diamond & Herkimer Hoops are inspire by Theia, the Greek goddess of sight and vision, the goddess who endowed gold, silver, and gems with their brilliance and intrinsic value. This collection of brilliant tiny Herkimer Diamonds, Rainbow Moonstones, and rose-cut Diamonds creates gently glistening flashing rainbow showers of light in delightfully joyful clusters and chains of sparkle. For a more simple piece for your everyday jewelry collection, we love The 22kt Gold Goddess Durga Round Pendant. Its a minimalist, timeless piece that can be worn over a shirt and jumper for a more casual look, or paired with an evening dress for more formal occasions.
The Perfect Sweater
Many of us spend our lives in search for the perfect sweater. This season we believe we have hit gold with Navygrey‘s sustainable jumpers! Navygrey uses handpicked superfine Scottish-spun wool that is RWS and Woolmark certified – each raw fibre lot can be traced back to the farm that produced it, ensuring greater quality control. 80% of their pieces are now made within the British Isles and with small amount of their knitwear is made in Portugal. Naturally breathable and odour resistant, they’re perfect for the cooler summer evenings. We think these jumpers look great paired with a classic pair of jeans. The Oversize in Lait and Ice White Stripe will be the perfect addition to your sustainable wardrobe this Spring, featuring luxurious, cocooning shape, with a subtle drop shoulder. Navygrey’s The Lorton Henley in Natural Ecru is another favourite, knitted in 100% locally- sourced British Bluefaced Leicester Wool. Investing in timeless and versatile pieces with neutral colours means these sweaters remain fashionable season after season!
A Go-To Bag
We think a bag is an essential staple item for your summer wardrobe (and for all seasons!) to complements your outfit and to carry the everyday essentials! Uri Studio’s collection of basket bags are made from 100% plant fibre by skilled female artisans in the Philippines. The Medium Rosa Bag in natural is the most worn basket bag out of the range and is perfect for all occasions, whether its a day out in the city, or a trip to the beach. We also love The Large Flora Bag in a beautiful deep black, which is naturally dyed by a local FIlipino expert. The lining is made from organic hemp canvas while the durable handles are made from 1st grade vegetable tanner Italian Leather. This spacious bag makes a great bag for a weekend away!
Something Bold
A bold, statement piece is also something worth investing in, for any summer event! They’re perfect for special occasions, whether thats birthday celebrations or summer wedding in Italy! Olistic The Labels beautiful new collection merges Art and Fashion with a new floral print created by the Parisian artist Amélie Lengrand. This print design was inspired by by the scent and path of flowers, echoing the Japanese floral art, Ikebana. Featured here are the Ikenobo Trousers, made from 100% GOTS certified organic silk satin. With their classic silhouette and front pleats, these pants will easily pair with a pair of sandals or heels for a slender look day or night. The Mizu Ikebana Dress is another favourite for a summer wardrobe, embodying an effortless elegance with its minimalist silhouette and contemporary design. This piece is made from 100% GOTS certified organic cotton veil, for a light and airy feel.
A Button-Down Shirt
Another versatile piece for any summer outfit is a classic button-down shirt, which are great for layering. Whether its a weekend brunch for more relaxed outfit or worn under a blazer for something more formal, they’re a go-to for your summer wardrobe. We’ve always loved Grammars collection of white organic cotton shirts made by excellent local artisans, craftspeople and women-and minority-owned businesses in New York City. One of our favourites is The Antecedent Organic Cotton Shirt, by Grammar, a modern take on a peasant top with gathering all up and down the slightly-cropped dolman sleeves. By The Sky‘s Capri Button Down is another staple for summertime, its oversized & perfect for the beach, or a day spent in the garden. This shirt is ethically made in Bali using a sustainable blend of hemp and organic cotton.
