Summer Fashion Is Elite—These 18 Dresses, Tops, and Sandals Prove My Theory
Sponsor Content Created With Net-a-Porter

Fall is famously fashion's biggest season, so you'll understand why I hesitate to share my controversial opinion that summer fashion is elite. But hear me out! Colorful dresses that require no additional layers, airy linen tops that show off my tan, and cute strappy sandals that make me feel like I'm on vacation even if I'm not… What's not to love? If you don't believe me, I recommend browsing Net-a-Porter for easy persuasion. I rounded up a slew of the retailer's new arrivals, which are perfect for sprucing up any sunny-day looks. Notable standouts include Rixo's coral silk-satin midi dress, a classic striped poplin top by Staud, and St. Agni's red wedge sandals. Here's all the evidence to prove my theory.
