Sweet Escape
The vacation capsule — elevated, easy, and ready for wherever the summer takes you. Twelve pieces, one very good suitcase.
The best vacation wardrobe does a lot with a little: pieces that pack flat, mix effortlessly, and look as good at a seaside lunch as they do wandering an old town at golden hour. This is the edit worth packing — a few throw-on dresses, the separates that stretch a suitcase, and the bag and baubles that pull it all together. High to low, morning to midnight. No overthinking, no overpacking.
