Garden Party Attire: Shop Pieces Perfect for Lawns, Rosé, and Romance

Below, our definitive Vogue guide to garden party attire—what to wear, what to avoid, and the best pieces to shop now in every category. Mini Dresses There's something irresistibly flirty about a mini dress when worn beneath sun-dappled trees. Garden parties are among the rare occasions where a shorter hemline can feel both whimsical and refined—especially when styled. This season, consider Magda Butrym's painterly floral off-shoulder silhouette or Khaite's raspberry-cream Pranta slip with architectural lines. For a touch of play, Pucci's print mesh and Staud's pleated embellished poplin mini bring energy to the lawn. Style with a raffia clutch and a block heel to balance whimsy with polish. Midi Dresses Consider the midi dress the true workhorse of garden party attire. Neither too prim nor too revealing, it offers the ideal length for moving gracefully between lawn chairs and canapé trays. This summer's highlights include Prada's butter-yellow pleated sheath, Stella McCartney's lace-trimmed satin midi with boudoir undertones, and Bernadette's painterly belted dress with a demure boat neckline. For a high-low moment, Mango's strapless floral option strikes a sweet note. Pair these with kitten heels and a bit of glinting jewelry, and you're well-suited for weddings, showers, or any garden gathering that demands a touch of ceremony. Maxi Dresses If the invitation leans formal—or if you simply wish to make an entrance—there's no greater ally than a floor-sweeping dress. Cara Cara's pleated strapless gown in crisp floral cotton evokes the grandeur of an English conservatory, while Sir's slinky silk slip dress printed with muted botanicals offers a subtler take. For those drawn to color, La DoubleJ's Penelope dress in zesty yellow reads like a walking sunbeam. Prefer stripes? Try the Laura linen sundress for a casual but considered statement. These sweeping silhouettes require little else—perhaps a sleek bun and delicate gold jewelry to finish the look. Separates While dresses may dominate, separates offer a welcome alternative, especially for those looking to wear their pieces long after the party ends. This season, Cara Cara's pleated cotton poplin skirt and matching tie-front shirt make a case for coordinated drama, while Simon Miller's striped poplin button-up and Pia pants nod to playful minimalism. Isabel Marant's tiered halterneck top and paisley-print mini skirt offer a more bohemian spirit—ideal for more relaxed affairs. Each combination can be just as garden-appropriate as a dress, particularly when styled with personality: a bold hair clip, a vintage brooch, or oversized sunglasses. Agua by Agua Bendita Reserva bustier top $390 NET-A-PORTER Agua by Agua Bendita Bergamota midi skirt $890 NET-A-PORTER Accessories No garden ensemble is complete without the finishing touches, and this is where whimsy and utility meet. Staud's ribbon-trimmed sunhat is both sculptural and practical, while Mango's braided leather bag and Loewe's floral cotton pouch bring texture without distraction. For evening affairs, consider Prada's fringed crochet clutch in a grassy green. Add polish with Bottega Veneta's cat-eye sunglasses and Lelet NY's delicate claw clip—accessories that feel intentional without being overwrought. The rule here is simple: your accoutrements should complement the garden, not compete with it.

Frankie Bridge looks incredible in a black swimsuit and a £285 patterned sarong as she celebrates her lookalike sisters' birthday during family holiday in Bermuda

Frankie Bridge looked sensational as she modelled a black backless swimsuit and a colourful patterned sarong in a new Instagram video on Tuesday. The Loose Women star, 36, showed off her amazing figure as she wrapped the £285 Pucci sarong around her plunging one-piece while soaking up the sun during a family holiday in Bermuda. Frankie accessorised with a pair of chunky £175 gold Missoma pearl drop earrings and added a stylish woven cowgirl hat. Keeping cool, the beauty styled her blonde tresses in a neat up do and accesorised with a pair of tinted sunglasses. The former Saturdays singer put on a leggy display in the beach ensemble as she posed up a storm in the sunshine. She wrote: 'Heard it's a Pucci Summer?' The Loose Women star, 36, showed off her amazing figure as she wrapped the £285 Pucci sarong around her plunging one-piece while soaking up the sun during a family holiday Frankie later took to her Instagram Story to share a sweet selfie with husband Wayne as they enjoyed a boat day celebrating her sisters 40th birthday. The former England footballer cut a cool figure in a white crochet vest and donned a pair of chunky black sunglasses. The couple were joined by several friends as they partied and 'danced a lot' while on a yacht. Frankie also shared a sweet photo of her bikini-clad lookalike sister holding her massive gold champagne birthday cake. It comes after Frankie revealed earlier this year that she had been suffering from an 'awful' illness that left her 'completely wiped out' as she opened up about her secret health battle. She took to Instagram to open up to her 1.5million followers as she explained that she has been suffering from gastroenteritis. In the candid video, Frankie revealed that her 'immunity has been so bad' after suffering from gastroenteritis - an inflammation of the stomach - back-to-back. The singer, who was dressed in a beige T-shirt and tracksuit bottoms, said she has been having other 'tests done' and has also been on 'antibiotics for a bad tooth'. Speaking from her kitchen, Frankie shared: 'Hi guys it's been a little while and I've said a couple of time that I've been ill a lot lately so I thought I would give you an update. 'I've basically had gastroenteritis twice back to back. Which I very rarely get to be honest and it has completely wiped me out and been awful. I feel like my gut has massively suffered and it feels still really fragile.' According to the NHS, gastroenteritis is a common inflammation of the stomach and intestines caused by viruses, bacteria, or parasites. It typically manifests with symptoms like diarrhea, vomiting, nausea, and stomach cramps, but can also include fever, fatigue, and headache. Frankie continued: 'My immunity has been so bad and all while that has been going on I've been having tests done and I couldn't take my daily Symprove. 'On top of all of this I've been on antibiotics because I've had a bad tooth and I feel like I've noticed a massive difference in my immunity.' The Saturday's star concluded by telling fans she has since been 'given the all clear' by doctors. She added: 'I'm finally over it and I'm hoping it's the last time because I've been given the all clear to get back into my daily routine. I'm happy to be back and it's nice to be back in a routine.'

The Halter Top Is Summer 2025's Hottest Comeback - Here Are The 6 Best Styles To Shop

As I write this, the day's weather forecast includes a high of 22 degrees—it's safe to say the time has come for summer dressing. This is, of course, easier said than done. And while I love the idea of donning outfits that channel a warm-weather holiday in Italy, I find myself reaching more for casual summer staples this time of year. One such staple is the halter top—which, I admit, I did not have on my bingo card for this season's biggest fashion trends. But I'm certainly not upset about it. It makes sense that halter tops are trending for summer 2025. It girls like Bella Hadid and Jennie Kim have been sporting versions reminiscent of the Y2K and early-2000s era, giving the look their seal of approval. On top of that, with its sleeveless, open design, it's a natural option for beating the heat. After all, this is the season when you most likely don't want anything touching your body—and like backless dresses, what better way to achieve that than with a halter? To be honest, I can't see why you shouldn't have a handful of these in your warm-weather wardrobe. From sleek and simple styles from brands like Nili Lotan and Éterne to head-turning options in iconic prints (ahem, Pucci), there are undoubtedly a few to add to the rotation when you aren't in the mood to wear a tank or blouse. (And if you're like me, you can fashion from a scarf—I recently styled with a collar necklace for a chic going-out top.) Of course, there's no need to get crafty when there are so many gorgeous options to choose from on the market. And whether you style them with a simple pair of wide-leg jeans, micro-shorts like Ms Hadid, or a maxi skirt, I promise you'll be looking like a style star all season long. Ahead, see my favourite halter tops to incorporate into your 2025 summer capsule wardrobe, below. ELLE Collective is a new community of fashion, beauty and culture lovers.

Mytheresa Reports Slower Sales Growth

Even online luxury's most stable force isn't immune to industry headwinds. Mytheresa's sales grew a paltry 4 percent to €243 million ($273 million) in the quarter that ended in March, down from the 13 percent growth it reported in the previous quarter and the 18 percent increase it saw during the same period last year. The slowdown was driven, in part, by a lower sales uptick in the US — previously one of the German e-tailer's strongest markets — which increased 4 percent during the quarter; revenue in the region rose 18 percent in the prior quarter. The results marked the end of a hot streak for the e-tailer, which generated more than 10 percent growth in three of its last four quarters despite a broader luxury slump. Still, the company's focus on wooing top spending clients with 'money-can't-buy' experiences like visits to Alaia's knitwear factory or intimate cocktails with Pucci's creative director, Camille Miceli, continues to pay off elsewhere in the business: its average spend per top customer grew 18 percent; and its average order value jumped 9 percent to €753 during the quarter. With top customers spending more per transaction, and returning less frequently, Mytheresa maintained a healthy 4 percent profit margin on its adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation. While Mytheresa's slower US growth predates the higher tariffs imposed by US President Donald Trump in April, it's a symptom of shifting consumer behaviour that was already underway. Consumer sentiment in the US dropped 18 percent year over year in the first three months of 2025 amid prolonged recession fears, according to the University of Michigan, which has only been exacerbated by tariff turmoil. Mytheresa now expects sales growth for its fiscal year, which ends in June, to land closer to 7 percent than the previous stretch goal of 13 percent, said Michael Kliger, the company's chief executive. 'I don't have any specific understanding of what will happen in the next two months other than uncertainty, and that is a problem,' Kliger said. 'What is really needed for companies to operate and for consumers to adapt to is stability.' Mytheresa's ability to retain profitable growth is more important than ever as it enters the most critical period in its history. In April, the company completed its acquisition of former rival Yoox Net-a-Porter. The combined quantity, now called LuxExperience, is expected to generate €4 billion in gross merchandise value by 2029, making it the biggest player in online luxury. To get there, LuxExperience has to recharge sales growth at YNAP — the company's sales dropped 15 percent in the quarter that ended last June. LuxExperience is enlisting the help of former employees for that turnaround: Toby Bateman and Jeremy Langmead — founding members at Mr Porter — are returning to the site as chief executive and brand director, respectively; Net-a-Porter's former vice president of global marketing and Mytheresa's North American president, Heather Kaminetsky, will succeed Alison Loehnis as CEO. LuxExperience will announce its post-acquisition plans to investors on Thursday. 'What [investors] want to know in regard to LuxExperience is not what will you do in the next three months,' Kliger said, 'they want to know what is the plan for the next three years.'

Christian Louboutin Launches Eyewear In Partnership With Marcolin

The brand that made feet sex symbols is now aiming for the same glammed-up vamp look for the eyes. Enter Christian Louboutin's newly launched eyewear and optical offerings in partnership with Marcolin, the Italian eyewear giant that also produces designer frames for Tom Ford and Pucci but also more mass brands such as Abercrombie & Fitch, Kenneth Cole and Adidas Originals. The launch comes as the firm appointed a new US CEO, Marco D'Acunzo, an executive in the automotive, sport, and hospitality industries who was most recently with Piaggio Italian scooters. The collection features a total of nine sunglass styles in various colorways and four optical styles; the brand will retail from approximately $625 to $875 with distribution on and select Christian Louboutin boutiques and at Saks Fifth Avenue stores, with the retailer erecting a special window display for the shades debut. According to a release, the offerings include women's and men's styles and draw inspiration from Christian Louboutin's work in pursuit of the 'perfect structural lines. 'The eyewear range includes new ZEISS lenses, which provide crystal-clear, comfortable vision thanks to anti-reflective coatings, glare reduction, and durability treatments. Described as a collection of 'modern luxury' according to a company spokesperson, the styles blend acetate and metal trims and mechanics. Brand codes are present as a row of teeny spikes on a pair of oversized Navigator frames; minuscule red sole hardware adorns the frames of Art-Deco cat and oval styles. Mesh patterns on bridges and temples recall the designer's fishnet-inspired styles on the Roller and So Kate styles. At the same time, red details appear as linear accents on the exterior and interiors of the frames, such as the Georges or Greggo 2 frames. Some styles take 'rose-colored' glasses to a new level with cherry red lenses, as seen on a version of the Miss Z. Many details also mimic the brand's beauty offerings.

It was born from a shared passion for design excellence and iconic luxury, combining Louboutin's unmistakable vision with Marcolin's ability to create a bold, elegant, and instantly recognizable collection," said Marcolin Group Style and Product Development Director Lara Marogne. To celebrate, the brand invited VIPs such as Diane Kruger, Olivia Palermo, Francesca Scorsese, Jeremy Pope, and Law Roach to downtown hot spot The Nines, which is bathed in red décor and lighting for sultry soirée. Guests were treated to the captivating song stylings of Chloe Flower, an American classical pianist who twists the music form but combines it with contemporary music. As guests stood around the baby grand piano where she performed, sipping champagne and specialty cocktails, Flower joked that she had never played piano in sunglasses but was a die-hard fan who wears Louboutin shoes to play in. Before and after the performance, DJ Isabella Massanet, daughter of Net-A-Porter founder Natalie Massenet, offered a smooth and groovy soundtrack while guests had the opportunity to try on the shades.
