What to wear to make a splash at that weekend pool party

THE SHEER DRESS

The peek-a-boo dress is a great way to show off your swimwear and keep cool and covered at the same time.

For optimal stylish effect, match the colour of the embellishments on the dress with the colour of your swimsuit and finish with matching slides or sandals.

THE PRINTED DRESS

Prints are the easiest way to make a statement, no matter where you are. Take the season’s exotic prints poolside with flowing dresses in bold colours, like red, yellow or blue. Complete your look with equally fierce cat-eye sunglasses.

THE CROP TOP

Show a little skin before you take a dip with this grown-up take on the crop top. Keep it classy in light-washed shades and pair with high-waist culottes or a flowing maxi skirt. Complete the look by adding a splash of colour with your accessories and shoes.

THE JUMPSUIT

A jumpsuit is the ultimate grab-and-go summer outfit. Whether you opt for one that’s minimal or with prints, styling a jumpsuit for a poolside vibe is as easy as adding a pair of matching or contrasting sandals or mules and simple accessories.

THE SEQUINNED MINI SKIRT

Show some leg and dare to wear sparkle with an iridescent mini skirt – perfect for when the sun goes down. Let the skirt shine by pairing it with a simple top and shoes.

For a pared-down version of this look, wear a light washed denim skirt and bikini top or crop top and add the sparkle with your accessories.
