Maritime meets modern as seaside fashion sails back into our wardrobes for spring– here’s how to wear the trend
Crisp sea air, sun-bleached textures and a hint of nautical nostalgia– this season, seaside style makes a fun return, but with a modern twist. Imagine classic Breton stripes, soft knits and casual denim, reworked in fun patterns and coastal hues that are easy to wear and style, whether you’re by the shore or in the city.
From chunky cardigans to breezy dresses and layer pieces to last you past one season, maritime influences are anchoring spring wardrobes with timeless ease. Here’s how our fashion team suggests getting a just-stepped-off-the-deck feel– for as little as £18.
