Versatile and stylish, the stunning new summer collection from Long Tall Sally is the most covetable to date.
An exquisite mix of jewel bright hues, dramatic prints and brilliant white fabrics characterise this contemporary collection of must-have high street summer pieces.
Dazzling tones of cobalt blue, jade and violet inject drama into a palette of pristine white and natural hues.
Design director Anne Storey, who previously worked as senior designer at Nicole Fahri, before launching her own fashion label, has created a wardrobe of contemporary and feminine pieces for tall women.
Colour palettes brighten this summer, taking inspiration from sophisticated ceramic, stone, ice and hemp tones, set off with high-impact accents, peony, violet and vibrant cornflower blue. Fabrics are high quality and sumptuous, including silk, linen, lace and chiffon.
High glamour is key this season and sees the renaissance of the dress, with silhouettes that veer from the sleek Hepburn shirt dress, available in peony and bronze, to the delicate pure silk patterned dress, finished with an exclusive print created by Storey. The luxury bustier dress in raw-edged silk, available in mocha or oyster, is a summer must-have.
Lighten up in white - the colour of the season. Choose from optic white pieces such as the classic tuxedo white linen suit or the wide-leg pants. Team with a jewel bright camisole. Pristine white and ultra-feminine, the embroidered skirt with floral detail and multi-panelling for a voluminous hem is an essential for the summer months.
Bold colours and statement prints define beachwear. Violet and kiwi-hued sarongs, camisoles and lightweight tunics give an instant dash of colour and style. Be experimental - wrap a cotton voile sarong around the neck, around the waist or create a bandeau-style dress.
Accessories are simple yet glamorous. Sarongs emblazoned with statement prints are the perfect accompaniment to the beach and thong sandals in neutral shades are ideal for leisure. Be bold with metallic 1920s-inspired T-bar kitten heels or a versatile woven raffia bag. Emphasise your waist with a leather-studded belt, the perfect accessory to any outfit. Step out in style wearing leather thong or embroidered sandals, which are ideal on the beach or during hot summer nights.
A lavish mocha bag finished with a satin padded handle has the summer's signature statement - cascades of chiffon ruffles. Fashioned from woven raffia, the tactile oversized beach bag is an ideal beach accessory.
