Hermès, Jil Sander & Off-White
Clean lines and butter-soft textures at Jil Sander and Hermès make summer leather lighter and effortlessly versatile. Perter Do upped the ante with metal plate detailing for a tougher take.

Etro, Dolce & Gabbana & Alessandra Rich
From retro to eighties -inspired, the bralette has had a resurgence for SS21. Wear it alone or keep it covered with a blazer.

From extra-long lengths to rock’n’roll – inspired distressing, denim in pant form was a key focus for SS21.
