Summer in
the city

Pleats have twofold appeal this season: they add dimension to clean silhouettes and travel well thanks to being crease-free. Slip on a timeless black tunic dress for timeless summer insouciance, or add a shot of teal to bring a double dose of Vitamin D to a day-to-night set.

A neutral linen two-piece is a sartorial palette cleanser — for the city, beach and beyond. Designed as interchangeable separates, with a bandeau and sandals, or over a bikini post swim, this natural fabric feels at ease for every eventuality, whatever the location.

Denim’s directional new guise is both elevated and easy to wear. Pair the indigo mini with Mary Janes to subvert the typical summer dress code or explore the versatility of a coordinating set in a soft blue wash.

Summer sees a return to perennial style with these COS signature silhouettes. The classic black jumpsuit channels daytime sophistication worn with leather slides and a woven bag, while the eternal appeal of the slip dress endures in striking green for sunset events.
