When winter starts to feel a little too grey, there’s nothing quite like the promise of a winter sun escape. Whether you’re heading to Mexico’s sun-drenched coastlines or chasing warmer days across the Canary Islands, packing with intention makes all the difference. For women who dress with confidence, creativity and ease, your holiday wardrobe should feel just as inspiring as the destination itself.
Our latest beachwear collection, inspired by the soulful spirit of Puerto Escondido, is designed for exactly that kind of getaway. Think sun-faded tones, artisan craftsmanship and effortless silhouettes that move beautifully from beach to bar.
Suitcases at the ready, here’s everything you need on your packing list…
A winter sun holiday calls for summer dresses that feel light, breathable and versatile. Billowing maxi dresses and relaxed beach dresses are ideal for warm days, offering coverage without heaviness. This season’s collection embraces large-scale abstract prints alongside fun sun motifs and delicate embroideries — perfect for women who love statement pieces with a relaxed feel. Slip one on over swimwear during the day, then add jewellery and sandals for women for sunset drinks to achieve a beach-luxe aesthetic.
Trend to try for 2026 escapes: Brown dresses for the beach. AW25’s warmest hue is going nowhere for the new year and it’s surprisingly chic and versatile for summer, too.
No winter sun packing list is complete without kaftans. Our flowing kaftans and beach dresses are designed to flatter while offering true escapism style. Cutwork mesh-cotton and viscose kaftans are a key piece this season, allowing air to flow while creating beautiful texture. From poolside lounging to seaside lunches, a kaftan is the ultimate throw-on-and-go essential.
Comfort is key when exploring warm destinations, but that doesn’t mean compromising on style. Flat beach shoes and sandals for women with artisanal detailing pair effortlessly with dresses, jumpsuits and co-ordinating sets. Neutral shades like black and chocolate brown ground the look, while soft leathers and relaxed shapes keep things easy on your feet all day long.
At the heart of every beach escape is swimwear that makes you feel comfortable, supported and stylish. Our swimwear is designed to work seamlessly with the rest of your holiday wardrobe — think flattering cuts, considered details and colours that pair beautifully with kaftans and beach dresses. Whether layered under a cutwork cotton kaftan or worn with wide-leg trousers and a tote bag, these are pieces made to be lived in, not just lounged in.
A spacious tote is a non-negotiable for winter sun escapes. The best tote bags for women are practical yet beautiful — roomy enough for SPF, a hammam towel, book and sunglasses, but stylish enough to carry into town. Choose natural textures or bold, embroidered prints to echo the free-spirited mood of your outfits.
Finally, don’t forget the details. A great pair of sunglasses not only protects your eyes but pulls your whole look together. Add lightweight scarves, artisan jewellery and relaxed co-ords — including batik jumpsuits and trouser-and-top sets — to create a wardrobe that feels curated yet carefree.
