The Street Style–Approved Way to Wear All White This Summer
Every item on this page was chosen by an ELLE editor. We may earn commission on some of the items you choose to buy. For a few sacred months each year, there's a fleeting window in which you can fully embrace all-white outfits. Your black coats and layers of gray and navy get enough airtime the rest of the year—why not let summer whites take center stage? A monochromatic look is always a power play—and when paired with sun-kissed skin and a confident attitude during the warm-weather months, head-to-toe white is exemplary. It's clean, crisp, and timeless, too. Whether you opt for linen, silk, or cotton, an all-white outfit also serves as the perfect blank canvas, which means you can tailor the statement to your individual style with chic jewelry, your favorite footwear, and this season's must-have bags. In need of inspiration? Ahead, find effortless all-white outfits to wear all summer. In case you haven't heard, halter tops are the ultimate heatwave hack. Take a cue from influencer Mary Leest and team a second-skin bodysuit with high-waisted trousers for an elegant look that's ultra-flattering. While minimalist sandals are the expected choice, a pair of brogues adds an androgynous twist. Effortless and comfortable, a tank dress silhouette is ideal for mornings when you don't want to overthink an outfit. If needed, stash a pair of heels in a roomy leather tote, and you'll be sorted for the evening. With her polished taste, Jasmine Tookes embodies the quintessential style. Channel her Cannes look with a matching white knit set, accented by retro-inspired black piping. As for the Birkin—well, they do say manifestation works... Here's a look that can be worn far beyond Labor Day as the weather starts to cool (don't listen to the naysayers!). Just be sure to wear a slouchy and low-rise fit when it comes to Bermuda shorts to avoid looking like a dad on vacation. Bored of jeans and a T-shirt? Swap your denim blues for fresh whites and a cotton top for an elevated silk shirt. It's a game-changing combination that you can count on for last-minute date nights and happy hours. Arguably, no one dresses better for the daily dog walk than Emily Ratajkowski. Take a page from her book with an easy, breezy lace-adorned mini. Jelly or gladiator sandals keep this look right on trend, too. White silk boxer shorts might not be for the faint of heart, but pair them with an oversized organza trench, and suddenly the look feels surprisingly tempting. Thanks to the pop of jet black and rich brown, this otherwise simple white pairing takes on a more powerful edge. Linen might just be the quintessential summer fabric. A coordinated set will be your go-to, as there's no shortage of ways to style it for day or night. Juxtapose the simple fabric and pared-back color with textures like suede and raffia for a look guaranteed to turn heads. Once you add a white maxi dress into your rotation, you'll wonder how you ever lived without it. A toned-down shoe like a flip-flop makes this look even cooler—especially when you accessorize with a silk headscarf.

Simone Ashley Switched From a Gold Peplum Gown to a Ruched Minidress for the ‘F1' Premiere
Every item on this page was chosen by an ELLE editor. We may earn commission on some of the items you choose to buy. Simone Ashley turned heads in a gold Balmain ensemble at the F1: The Movie premiere in London. It was one of two metallic looks she wore that night. The actress arrived on the Leicester Square red carpet in a woven dress from Balmain's fall/winter 2025 collection that featured a halter neckline, sculpted bodice, and sharply flared peplum. Ashley kept the palette consistent with strappy metallic sandals, a matching watch, and Skydiamond hoops and ring. Later that night, Ashley stepped out at the F1 after-party at NoMad London. She wore a second metallic statement look: a gray ruched minidress fastened at the neck with gold hardware. A gold clutch and heels completed the ensemble. Her appearance follows reports that her role was significantly reduced in the racing drama. Director Joseph Kosinski confirmed the change to People, explaining that a few storylines 'ultimately didn't make [it] into the final cut.' He added, 'Simone, she's an incredible talent, incredible actress, incredible singer, and I would love to work with her again.' Ashley addressed her feelings on the film after its U.K. premiere, writing on Instagram, 'Last night at the F1 premiere in my hometown ✨ It was a joy to reunite with the cast and crew, and to celebrate—I couldn't have been prouder watching everyone shine on screen and on the carpet, all while wearing my couture @balmain gown that made me feel just as radiant. I've come away with friendships and memories I'll treasure forever. 💛 Go see this movie!—it's a must see ride and speed like you've never seen before! 🏎️'

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.

Georgia's never had any help and the level of respect I have for mums - it's not a joke." She continued: "The amount of stuff! You're packing up a planet every time you move. Even carrying the baby is quite heavy. I was like: 'Ow, my arm hurts do you want her back?'" Despite admitting baby Bella was the "most hyperactive child ever", Sophie said she was "in love with her", adding the family had "a really sweet, wholesome time". However, she did say that she was "unable to switch off" during the holiday, adding: "Me and mum were so tired".
