Zara's Sister Brand Just Dropped Its Chicest Collection To Date—9 Summer Buys That Will Sell Out First
I just tried on Massimo Dutti's summer collection. These are the expensive-looking summer buys that came home with me.
I'll admit, I spend an inordinate amount of time scanning the Zara website. Almost every day, I find myself perusing the new-in section, whether it's part of my workday or off-duty downtime. The hours of exploring can generally result in a few new additions to my wish list, but occasionally I find myself wanting the expensive-looking offerings of Zara, but with a slightly more grown-up twist. That's when I turn to Massimo Dutti. Zara's older sister brand follows the same way of creating rich-looking buys at affordable prices, but with an added dose of sophistication. Naturally, on my stroll home from work the other day, I decided to stop by and see what Massimo Dutti's summer collection has to offer. Personally, I think it's the best collection to date.

Whilst Zara swings between trending buys and timeless additions, Massimo Dutti takes a more focused approach. The brand's best pieces are frequently mistaken for investment buys as the designs focus on clean lines, pared-back silhouettes and a focus on anti-trend pieces that will go the distance. Compared to its high street counterpart, the pieces from Massimo Dutti can come in at a slightly higher price point, but the timeless edge in each creation ensures that they'll earn their keep in your wardrobe for years to come.
Looking to the summer collection, Massimo Dutti is celebrating what it does best. Staples are back by way of 100% linen shirts in an array of demure and bolder shades, well-cut trousers with crisp pleating and classic dresses that ooze sophistication from every angle. What makes this high street brands' pieces look so high-end is the attention to silhouette, intricate design additions like sharp pleats and soft ruching, and high-quality fabrics from linen to cotton that both look and feel luxurious. Below, I've pulled together a refined edit of the chicest pieces from the summer collection. One piece can instantly rejuvenate your summer looks, and together they'll make for an elegant capsule wardrobe to see you through this summer and many more to come.
