SEA LA VIE: THE COASTAL LOOK HAS NEVER BEEN MORE IN FASHION

Santa Maria Novella

Bottega Veneta, Celine, Gucci, Burberry and Chloé have cast their nets wide with nautical stripe sweaters and T-shirts, sailing knot-printed silks, seashell-shaped minaudieres and canvas boat bags available at South Coast Plaza. 

Other treasures to be found here include Van Cleef & Arpels’ charming gold, lapis lazuli and mother-of-pearl Lucky Summer boat-shaped clip that can be fixed to a shirt collar, Tiffany & Co.’s extraordinary diamond-encrusted starfish-shaped pendant fit for a mermaid, and David Yurman’s gold Maritime compass amulet that will keep you oriented even at the most distant ports.

Speaking of which, Dolce&Gabbana found plenty of print inspiration for the season in the Mediterranean Sea and is also supporting its conservation through the Blue Marine Foundation. And sales of the Versace La Vacanza collection are helping raise awareness for coral restoration in French Polynesia through the brand’s funding of Coral Gardeners, proving that looking good can also be doing good. 

Whether you are heading to points east or west on your own private Koru, or just relaxing on deck in Newport Harbor, summer will be smooth sailing in these seafaring styles.
