As we find ourselves in the grips of the Great British heatwave, striking the right balance between comfort and style can be tricky.

Breathe easy
Embracing breezy, breathable and barely-there fabrics is an absolute must during hot spells. Lovely, lightweight linen and cool, fresh cottons will be your best friend - as natural fibres, they’re much kinder to your skin by absorbing excess moisture and allowing it to breathe properly.
Beat the heat while looking suitably chic by styling our cotton-rich seersucker shorts with our jersey cotton tee.

Opting for loose fit, relaxed shapes is another must on a hot summer’s day, and nothing beats the easy-to-wear nature of a dress. When the heat turns up, you’ll love our relaxed jersey day dress - crafted in a soft, comfortable jersey, it’s the perfect piece to simply pull on and go. Alternatively, if you fancy adding something a little bit different to your summer wardrobe, why not opt for one of our easy, breezy kaftans?
Cool cover-ups
If you need the protection of a lightweight layer while you’re out and about in the sun or you’re after something to pop over your shoulders as the evening breeze sets in, give our featherlight cotton-silk overshirt a try.
You can’t go wrong with this beautifully featherlight garment, which is crafted in naturally breathable cotton and silk fibres to keep you comfortable all day.

Sleep soundly
Endlessly tossing and turning on a warm summer’s evening is something we all want to avoid, so choosing the right fabrics and styles for your nightwear is especially important.
Sleeveless nightdresses are the perfect solution - choose loose-fit styles in pure cotton for coolness and to regulate your temperature.
So whether you’re lucky enough to be spending this recent hot spell by the coast or just want to stay cool while you’re running your daily errands, we have plenty of light and airy styles to help you master hot weather dressing.
