If you’ve been daydreaming about a trip to the French Riviera, welcome to the club.

As for where to shop the look, Ghost‘s new Summer 2024 Collection has all your staples sorted, from soft cotton day dresses, to luxurious linen coords and broderie Anglaise designs, these are our top picks for the months ahead…
In Partnership With Ghost
Grown-Up Florals
When it comes to floral print, one way to ensure a cool, grown-up feel is by opting for relaxed silhouettes with a touch of rouching or a loosly draped belt across the waist.
Frilly Flourishes
Monique Cotton Mix Midi Dress, £149
There are few things we reach for over a billowing midi dress on a sundrenched day. Airy, effortless and instantly put-together, this summer, we’re seeing the return of romantic detailing: think frills, ruffles and dainty little bows.
Sophisticated Stripes
Abrielle Stripe Cotton Jacquard Midi Dress, £129
While the Breton top is famously associated with Francophiles, this season we’re leaning towards its more laid-back, older sister. Distinguished by alternating directions and non-uniform spacing, this striped iteration has a more elevated effect, creating a boho beachy feel instead of preppy and nautical.
Monochromatic Moments

You don’t have to wear head-to-toe colour to embrace the summer months in style. French girls, instead, opt for tailored linen sets with Broderie Anglaise details and intricate motifs for a more subtle nod to the season. Finish with a dab of blush and freshly tousled hair.
