There's something magical about finding great warm weather tops. You can mix and match them with basically everything in your wardrobe, and dress it up for dinner, or pop it over bathers in summer.
With the warmer months finally here, it's time to refresh our top-drawer situation. And this season's offerings are genuinely exciting – we're seeing a beautiful shift towards pieces that prioritise comfort without sacrificing style.
The standout trend? Everything feels effortlessly relaxed. Think flowing silhouettes, breathable fabrics, and cuts that move with you rather than against you. It's fashion that actually makes sense for a hot Aussie summer.

Colour-wise, we're spoilt for choice. Crisp white remains the ultimate wardrobe hero (it simply screams summer), while this season also embraces soft pastels for those dreamy, romantic moments.
But if you're ready to make a statement, graphic tees featuring European-inspired slogans are cementing themselves as the 'it' summer staple. Plus, our new favourite colour crush 'brown' is not hibernating for winter. Quite the opposite.
The fabric story is all about texture and breathability. Timeless linen has that perfectly imperfect, lived-in appeal, while delicate lace adds feminine touches and crochet and lightweight knits are having their main character moment.
When it comes to silhouettes, less is definitely more. We're seeing asymmetric cuts that add visual interest without trying too hard. Romantic puff sleeves feel fresh and modern, while fluid draping ensures comfort meets elegance.
