My Holiday Wardrobe Is in Need of a Total Overhaul, and This Is the One Collection I’ll Be Shopping

To the shock of many, summer is my least favourite season to dress for. Without chunky knitwear and baggy jeans to rely on, I find myself at a loss for what to wear—particularly when I still want to look put-together. But I think I have discovered a collection that covers my every holiday dressing need: Rat & Boa's Fantasia capsule.

There are several non-negotiables that should make up a summer capsule wardrobe (my personal top choices being comfortable swimwear and a floaty dress) but sourcing pieces that are practical in warm weather and reflect your personal style can take some more intensive browsing.

Packed full of billowing kimonos, airy cover-ups, loose trousers and patterned midi dresses, the Fantasia collection has managed to encapsulate exactly what I'm looking for to pad out my severely lacking seasonal wardrobe.

With London weather to contend with, I can never really be sure what the most suitable ensemble for each day will be. That's why I love the various mix-and-match options that fill this collection, with lightweight trousers and long sleeved tops for overcast weather, and halter neck tops with midi skirts that are made for afternoons in the sun.

And I have to give a special mention to the swimwear: subverted florals, asymmetric ruching and fresh takes on animal print make for simultaneously classic and modern investments that will see me through countless summers to come.

If you're equally as lost when it comes to summer styling and on the hunt for investment pieces that you'll looking forward to wearing every day, look no further.
