Sequins in summer get a bad reputation and we think it is completely undeserved. The assumption is that they belong to December, to dark venues, to the bit of the year when everyone is dressed up and nobody is paying close attention to what you are actually wearing. But a sequin dress in summer is something else entirely. Worn during the day with flat sandals and sunglasses it has a kind of relaxed confidence that nobody sees coming. Worn to an outdoor wedding or a rooftop dinner it does everything a summer dress should do and then makes considerably more impact. The key is finding sequin dresses that are actually cut for real occasions rather than ones that feel like they belong on a stage. Lighter fabrics underneath, relaxed silhouettes, lengths that work in daylight. We have been hunting down exactly those. The ones you can wear in August heat without feeling costumed. The ones that photograph brilliantly on a terrace. Sequins are not a winter-only proposition and this collection is our argument that summer is actually where they belong.
