Fall always calls for a wardrobe refresh, so our latest Who What Wear Collection edit has arrived at the perfect time. This drop is all about classic wardrobe staples with modern touches: knit dresses, polished separates, and cozy sweaters, all of which you'll want to wear again and again for years to come. The same can be said about Cartier's most iconic jewelry and watch collections, which were designed with a convention-breaking spirit but remain timeless from year to year. They're classic for a reason, after all. We shot this collection in the hills of Malibu—an iconic location in its own right—with the idea that understated shapes can be elevated by unique details. Keep scrolling for an inside look at how we're mixing our new fall pieces with Cartier's legendary designs.

As the creative director of Who What Wear Collection, I can confidently say that we’ve never had a sale this big before. If you ask me, 50% off any full price item you want is the kind of big time sale that deserves its own article. No picking through the dregs of a sale section. The brand new merchandise, yes, including the gorgeous items that just dropped, can all be yours at half off. Use the code JULY4 now through July 7th at checkout for the discount to be applied. And a word to the wise: it is final sale, so read the reviews and description, check out how the item looks on our IG feed, and maybe consult your most trusted friend to make sure you are confident in your purchase. To get you started, I included images of my top three picks from the line. Happy shopping!

The start of summer means that many al fresco dinners, beach days, and dreamy vacations are in the near future, and it's about time we prepare our wardrobes accordingly. Enter our latest Who What Wear Collection drop, complete with all the breezy dresses, casual suiting, and polished staples we could ever hope to wear this season. Our latest collection was dreamt up by editor in chief Kat Collings, who styled the summer pieces with chic jewelry stacks from Clash de Cartier for the ultimate summer outfit inspo. Get an inside look at the new collection with styling notes and tips from Kat herself.

Deciding what to shop for in the summer can sometimes feel like an insurmountable task. Do you go the safe route and invest in staple pieces? Or do you take a risk and try a new micro-trend? And why do you have to pick just one way to shop for the summer? If you’re anything like our editors, it’s safe to guess that you want anything you buy to satisfy your cravings fully and be both trendy and timeless. Luckily for you, there’s one stylish summer staple that manages to bridge that gap: the tropical button-down shirt. Tropical prints have made a triumphant comeback in spring/summer 2022 collections, but if the idea of wearing this print makes you think of those oversize menswear shirts, you’re not alone. Former iterations of this staple were far from chic, but as usual, our very own Who What Wear Collection is solving style dilemmas you didn’t even know existed. 

And if you’re still dubious about how a tropical-print button-down could be chic, much less a must-have for the summer, prepare to be proven wrong. Ahead, our very own editor in chief, Kat Collings, and I are test-driving the trend by trying on and styling Who What Wear Collection’s Kiki Button-Down Vacation Shirt. Keep reading for our reviews and some styling inspiration that’s bound to make you fall in love with this summer staple.

Kat Collings in the Kiki Button-Down Vacation Shirt

Kat’s Review: "Every summer, I get the urge to liven up my look a bit, but it’s easier said than done for a girl who is usually in neutrals. How do I look summery and fun in browns, tans, white, and black? Well, the answer lies in this shirt. It has a tropical nod without feeling out of place in the city. The slightly oversize silhouette is easy, and the second you step outside your door, people will compliment you. I’m obsessed! I styled it with trousers for an office look, but how cute would it be with denim shorts and chunky fisherman sandals for a laid-back look?”

Jasmine Fox-Suliaman in the Kiki Button-Down Vacation Shirt

Jasmine’s Review: "I must preface this by saying that I’m not normally a fan of button-down shirts because they don’t always fit my larger bust, and I find them harder to style. But that’s not the case with Who What Wear Collection’s Kiki Button-Down Vacation Shirt. First, the fit is immaculate. There was none of that button bulging, and it has a perfect waist-length hemline. The fabric is breathable, making it ideal for a sweltering summer in New York or a tropical destination. What I also love about this top is that, despite being a tropical print, it’s perfect for everyday wear. You can style it with jeans or trousers for a work-friendly look, or you can tie it over a bikini or slip skirt for a vacation outfit. The possibilities are endless with this top.”

As the editorial director of Who What Wear, I am responsible for a variety of things. One of my favorites, however, includes supporting and gushing over Who What Wear Collection.

I've reached a point in the summer where the closet is stacked with what seems like everything I need. Yet, there are still occasional moments when I am dreaming of the new pieces that I'd love to make their way into my wardrobe. My daily Instagram scrolls and walks through New York City always bring up a source of new inspiration. I'm quick to spot the trends that I want to try next, and the 5 pieces I just added to my wardrobe touch on all of them. 

I distinctly remember seeing someone in the West Village wearing a tailored vest the other day which made me feel like I had to have one immediately. I also can recall the perfect princess-like cotton poplin dress moment that I just had to emulate. When the latest Who What Wear Collection drop included all of the above, I just had to have as many of those new styles as I could get my hands on to recreate the inspirational moments that were haunting my brain. These 5 pieces were truly game-changers and you have to see how I styled them this week. 

Have you ever wanted to feel like Cher from Clueless? That dream of mine came true when I wore this look-out for appointments the other day. A matching set always wins me over and this one is definitely worth wearing another time as separates as well. I felt so pulled together which made getting dressed a breeze on that busy work day of mine.

Shop the look:

Tailored suiting is another foolproof move when it comes to making the most out of your wardrobe. I've already worn these pieces as separates with the vest pairing well with my low-rise jeans and the pants being a great match to the ribbed white tanks I'm loving. Next, I need the matching blazer.

Shop the look:

Cotton poplin dresses are evolving more and more in the full-on princess direction. This butter-colored dress is one to call on if you want to feel as special as I did wearing this look just yesterday. From the full skirt to the tie details at the neckline, you'll look fabulous from head to toe.

While I've certainly made questionable fashion purchases this year (my green velvet flares immediately come to mind), my current mindset has been to buy smart. That means scaling back on things I don't need, items I don't instantly love, and pieces that are so fashion-y that they'll likely fade in a few months' time. Here's where my newly adopted cost-per-wear approach comes in: The more you wear it, the less the item theoretically costs over time leading to a bigger value. And a low cost per wear is precisely how I'm hoping my future wardrobe operates.

As I continue to build out my wardrobe for the season ahead, I'm looking for staples that don't require me to think—pieces I can simply slip it on and be confident that it works. Below, I've assembled all of the new clothing staples that fit this category. Classic with a hint of trendy, they're so versatile, they just make sense to add them now.

Kendall Jenner's style is almost entirely perfect, from her red carpet looks to her off-duty street style. The only thing it's sometimes missing is a bit of affordability. Sure, we love an aspirational ensemble, but every once in a while, it'd be nice to be able to actually buy something a celebrity wears. Luckily, at least when it comes to her latest look, we managed to find a dangerously good alternative that won't cost you a pretty penny. 

This week, Jenner posted a slideshow on her Instagram that showcased a black knee-length dress with a V-waist from Khaite. And while the LBD is undoubtedly stunning, the $1500-plus price tag could place it outside of your summer-dress budget. Our solution? Buying a very similar, long-sleeve option that, for a limited time, costs just $64, down from $128. The dress, Who What Wear Collection's Tiler dress, has a crew neck and comes in two colors, black and mauve, both of which are included in the sale. That, and it's made of a super-soft and drapey material that allows it to work for practically any season and occasion.

Even though I've been a fashion editor for almost a decade and pretty much eat, sleep, and breathe fashion, whenever someone asks me to describe my style, I struggle. It's not that my aesthetic changes all that often; it's just that I don't really have a specific one. And I'm okay with that. I know what I like to wear, but I just can't find the right specific terms to attach to it. An upside of this is that I don't really feel boxed in to a specific aesthetic and can try whatever trends I like whenever I want without worrying about it suiting my "vibe."

As someone without a specific style type, I find shopping pretty fun. My wardrobe is a bit all over the place, so I don't feel the need to rule out a ton of trends or items. But what I do try to shop for on a regular basis are versatile items and cool accessories that enhance these items. Scroll to join me and shop 31 gems on my radar right now.

There's a small section of my closet that I consider my happy heroes. These are pieces that I can rely on time and again, and they will save any outfit and solve a "what to wear" dilemma in an instant. Moreover, I know these pieces look expensive (even if many of them aren't) and have the ability to elevate any ensemble.

Call it cliché, but there’s no fashion person I know who isn’t also a secret Francophile—it comes with the territory. After all, we are constantly following the biggest trends to come out of couture ateliers, the street style scene, and the newest brands. It is only natural that anyone who loves fashion would equally grow to love French aesthetics. And if I’m being truly honest, no one has quite mastered the art of dressing like the French fashion set (blame that je ne sais quoi), especially in the summertime. There’s nothing chicer than a woman donning a satin slip dress by the seine or someone shopping for brie cheese in a Peter Pan–collar poplin blouse. It’s a vibe, to say the least. And while we might not all be able to be French or even visit Paris this summer, we can channel the energy through a few key pieces. In that vein, I did some digging on Instagram to identify the 10 key pieces that feel French and then shopped them out with our very own Who What Wear Collection. Consider this your guidebook to being chic all summer, sans effort.

Key Summer Staple #1: Poplin Top

Picture the scene: It’s a warm summer day, and you’re walking in Paris—what are you wearing? If you imagined you’re donning denim with a crisp poplin top, you may be secretly French. Seriously though, there’s no more quintessential French-feeling staple than this piece. Even if you don’t have a trip to Paris booked soon, investing in this style is a safe bet every time.

Shop the staple:

Key Summer Staple #2: Pleated Shorts

Another staple the French fashion set loves and wears all summer long? Pleated shorts. They’re far more polished than denim shorts, and with styles ranging from crisp white linen shorts to caramel cargo shorts, they’re the most versatile staple for the summer.

Shop the staple:

Key Summer Staple #3: Cute Cardigan

I have yet to find one French influencer who isn’t a fan of a good cardigan—it’s the year-round staple. The key to this piece is opting for iterations with special details to give it that French flair (e.g., vibrant hues, cropped hemlines, and fun buttons).

Shop the staple:

Key Summer Staple #4: Two-Piece Set

Another staple I’ve spotted the French fashion set whipping out time and again is the beloved two-piece set. My hunch is that the Parisians know this is the easiest way to look polished no matter what. Whether you choose a knitted skirt set, a cotton poplin set, or a sultry silk set, you can’t go wrong with this crucial buy.

Shop the staple:

Key Summer Staple #5: Cutout Dress

One thing you can’t deny about the French fashion set is that they’re not afraid to get risqué with the outfits. Any sultry trend—whether it be micro miniskirts or low-rise pants—was like donned by them before anyone else. So it only makes sense that at least one spicy summer staple would be in the mix, like a cutout dress. Whether it’s a full-length maxi worn to the beach or a simple dress worn on the daily, this style is peak French energy.

Shop the staple:

Key Summer Staple #6: Button-Down Shirt

In addition to the poplin top, the button-down shirt has its own special place in the wardrobes of the French fashion set. Whether paired with jeans and ballet flats or tied over a little slip dress, this chic staple is an essential part of any wardrobe (French or otherwise).

Shop the staple:

Key Summer Staple #7: Slip Skirt

Remember those few years when everyone in New York was wearing the same cheetah-print slip skirt? Well, it was an import from the French fashion brand Réalisation. And while that skirt may have had its moment, the slip style itself is still a quintessential staple among the French set—and really in any summer wardrobe. Simply opt for the piece in a more trend-forward print or hue to give it a 2022 update.

Shop the staple:

Key Summer Staple #8: Light Blazer

Given that some of the most iconic French houses made suiting an essential part of every woman’s closet, it’s no surprise that a blazer would be a mainstay in every Parisian’s wardrobe, even in the summer. The secret to making this staple ready for warm weather is by opting for iterations in lighter fabrics (linen and cotton) and with fun details like interesting tailoring and vibrant hues.

Shop the staple:

Key Summer Staple #9: Relaxed Trousers

The key to embodying that effortlessly polished look is by having an arsenal of great staples—enter, relaxed trousers. Not only is this a beloved trend among the Parisian set, but people around the world have also rallied around this trend because of how easy it is to inject into your wardrobe and wear year-round.

Shop the staple:

Key Summer Staple #10: The Perfect Little Sundress

Last but certainly not least, you can’t really survive summer in Paris (or anywhere for that matter) without a perfect little sundress. Of course, you can’t go wrong with any dress, but should you want to go full French with it, opt for almost Versailles-inspired details (think: puff sleeves, corset boning, ruching, and bows) for a truly stylish summer.

As a fashion editor, I’m often the go-to resource in my inner circle when someone needs shopping advice. Recently, one of my super-close friends asked what I’ve been loving that she could mix into her summer rotation. My mind immediately went to our namesake label, Who What Wear Collection.

There were actually seven specific items that stood out to my friend. In case you too are looking for a bit of shopping inspiration, I’m sharing the pieces she approved of below.

Lately, simplicity has been on my mind when it comes to my wardrobe. I really love pieces that are simple yet elevated, and that can be worn multiple ways from day to night. As a fashion editor, of course, I absolutely love clothes but being based in NYC means not a whole lot of closet space so stylish versatile pieces are absolutely essential.

When I’m on the hunt for pieces like this, Who What Wear Collection is on the top of my list. So many great staples like classic dresses, great tailored pants, and the most flattering bodysuits and tops. During my latest deep dive on the Who What Wear Collection site I found 30 pieces that I have no choice but to love.

There's something about summer that just makes me want to spend money, especially on random new trends. I've always been the girl who is game to try nearly any new style once, but after years of donating said trends after keeping them in my closet for way too long, I have decided it's time to hone in. This summer, I won't be depriving myself of trends, per se, but I will be shopping more intentionally. Thanks to the stunning new pieces that dropped from Who What Wear Collection, there are officially five classic summer buys I am standing by this season, and I need you to know about them.

Featuring prints, expensive-looking separates, and lots of practical pieces, the list below will ensure your seasonal wardrobe is in the best shape of its life. I also went ahead and shopped out a handful of the other summer must-haves from Who What Wear Collection, according to me. 

Interesting White Tops

White shirts are always a good idea, but in the summer, they are essential. Yes, tanks and tees always do the trick, but if you're looking for something with a bit more impact, opt for unique textures and shapes in your next neutral summer top.

Shop interesting white tops:

Long Skirts

Long skirts are perfect for an everyday casual look, a vacation go-to, and much more. Not only are they very current, but they have also proven to be a wardrobe staple, despite their rising spot on the trend circuit.

Day-to-Night Dresses

Versatile dresses are perfect no matter where you are, but if you're heading on vacation, they are a must. Save yourself the extra room in your suitcase and make the most of your purchases instead.

Anything Floral

Florals will always be in style, especially in the summer. I love a floral dress, but I'm currently eyeing this cute tank and midi skirt. I can already think of so many ways to style these lovely printed pieces.

Relaxed Pants

Feeling constricted by tight pants in the summer heat is never fun, so I always opt for relaxed trousers instead. Luckily, there are many options—from fun textures like plissé to basics like pleated trousers—for the breezy-summer-pant look.

My favorite time of year to have a shopping spree is right at the tail end of spring. As we gear up for summer, I excitedly exclaim, "In with the old and out with the new." But what I love specifically about the last few days of spring is that I've entered a period where the coats and heavy knits are tucked away, and I'm fully preparing to be dressed in my summer wardrobe from head to toe. 

My love for this brand may be biased, but the quality and detail behind each of its products is so strong I can't help but be obsessed. The latest drop from Who What Wear Collection has all of the pieces I was looking for to fill in the cracks of my closet just in time for summer. Below, you'll find the perfect matching set for your next vacation, linen shorts that rival even the most accurate coastal grandma, and so much more. 

The dress that makes every day feel like a vacation:

If there's one item I'm buying this summer, it's certainly going to be this one. Three of my favorite summer trends are present: elongated hemlines, a halter neck, and cutouts. The print is just the right amount of tropical, and it will be so easy to look dressed up for a special occasion when I have it in my closet.

The minidress every Who What Wear editor wants to own:

When I saw this dress, I immediately turned my screen so that my co-workers could see how good it is. We all were obsessing over every detail—the linen fabric, the '90s silhouette, and the fact that both colors serve completely different vibes.

A matching set that will have everyone asking where you got it from:

Your next vacation requires this set. The top will look so cool on top of a swimsuit with black denim shorts. Following that beach look I described, you'll easily transition into dinner by throwing on the skirt.

The black midi dress that works for any ocassion:

Bridgerton was cited as the inspiration for this dress, so I think we all need it. The sweetheart neckline has to be the greatest feature, as it perfectly will frame your face. The fitted bodice flares out into a slightly pleated skirt and has such a good texture. Plus, you already know how I feel about puff sleeves.

The classic yet cool linen shorts:

I had been on the lookout for the perfect linen shorts. After watching the coastal-grandma obsession take over, I knew I needed a new pair. I spent some time searching, but they were either too short or too long, or the fabric just wasn't right. My problem was solved the moment these shorts dropped onto the site.

The ideal summer going-out top:

Building out the perfect summer wardrobe requires a standout lineup of tops that have endless ways that you can wear them. My obsession with this one runs deep, mainly because of how much I love pink right now. But the cowl neckline gives it just the right '90s aesthetic I'm currently lusting over.

A cloudlike matching set:

I've never seen a matching set that looked better as separates than this one. My favorite wardrobe staple, the white button-down, needed an update, and this one's ladder stitching and embroidery are next-level. The word on the street is knee-length skirts are trending, so I'll be adding this skirt to my wish list as well.

As a born-and-raised Southern Californian, my style tends to be quite casual, no matter the occasion.

I may be biased, but Who What Wear Collection's newest spring launch is full of beautiful, well-made pieces that don't cost a fortune yet look so polished.

While you've surely heard us gush about nearly every item in our latest Who What Wear Collection drop, it's hard not to pick a favorite this season when one piece has clearly distinguished itself from the rest. Just ask my colleague, Who What Wear's assistant market editor, Yusra, who swears that whenever she wears our Mimi cardigan, strangers literally stop her in the street to give her compliments. I can't say I'm surprised since I, too, was taken aback the first time I laid eyes on the floral-embroidered beauty.

Beyond its pattern, however, I've learned that the knit has a lot more to offer in order to prove its place as a hero piece. To start, its relaxed and comfortable fit are the perfect complements to an easy spring combo of jeans and a tee. Next, it looks just as good open as it does buttoned-up as a top. And lastly, to round things out, it's comprised of 50% Seawool (an eco-friendly mix of repurposed PET bottles and surplus oyster shells), but that doesn't mean it compromises on texture for even a moment. If that doesn't do it for you, maybe some of the below fashion inspo will. So to see how some of our favorites are styling the cardigan, shop it, and check out more pieces we're loving, simply keep scrolling.

It doesn't have to be Earth Day to appreciate an eco-friendly find. I love how this piece incorporates Seawool, which isn't just soft on the environment but also soft to the touch.

In Yusra's own words, "Whenever I wear this cardigan, strangers stop me to give me compliments. It fills me with 'main-character energy,' if I'm being honest, like I'm the star of a 2000s rom-com. The florals aren't in-your-face but still stand out in the best way, and the fit is also relaxed and comfortable. I love that I can just be wearing a basic T-shirt and jeans but add this cardigan on top to make it a well-rounded ensemble."

It's great from afar, but even better up close.

Add "goes well with jeans and converse" to the cardi's list of attributes.

Despite being printed, the black background makes it so easy to match.

Fashion people are pretty much my guiding force. I turn to my favorite group of stylish women whenever I'm in need of some inspiration, whether it's what to wear with my jeans or which new trend to buy into. Lately, I've noticed an uptick in outfits that feature one rather chic and sophisticated dress, and now it has my full attention. Meet the Daphne dress from our namesake line. It's easy, elevated, and effortless all in one, and as I'm highlighting below, it's impossible to look bad when wearing it. 

Not to sound biased or anything, but Who What Wear Collection is kind of a gold mine for easy-yet-elevated pieces—basically everything is designed to have maximum wardrobe-staple potential, and the Daphne dress is certainly no exception. After combing through all the cool styling ideas I've seen in my feed, I felt compelled to try the dress out for myself. I just ordered it in both colors—a stone-beige hue and a deep charcoal—and can already tell it will become my new staple.

Ahead, see how fashion people are wearing the Daphne dress, and shop it in both colors.

For the daytime, flat sandals and classic accessories speak for themselves.

Taking the belt off gives it more of an effortless and relaxed vibe.

Strappy heels and a mini bag are all you need to dress it up for a spring or summer evening.

My favorite thing about the Daphne? The beautiful soft cupro cotton fabric it's made from that's woven in Japan. 

While I'd argue it's a year-round piece, the lightweight feel and easy silhouette make it a wardrobe staple for warmer months.

Flat sandals pair flawlessly, especially the fisherman sandals that are trending for 2022.

A wide waist belt transforms it into a completely new dress.

Layer on a cardigan or cropped jacket for a chic finish.

The ruched neckline and belt detail deserve a closer look.

One of the most enduring accessory trends of the past several seasons is, undoubtedly, baseball caps. They add a cool, effortless, sporty touch to any outfit, and I personally think they look good on everyone. I suppose this explains why I own more of them than one person really needs, but there's no harm in that. And I'm happy to say that I'm about to add another one to my collection.

Our very own line, Who What Wear Collection, just released a baseball cap of its own. It's a neutral khaki shade that works year-round. It's made of durable cotton twill and features Who What Wear Collection's chic logo embroidered in black. And yes, it's only $38, which is far less than many logo hats on the market.

Most often, we’re highlighting what we’d buy, brands we love, and styles that feel on-trend, as well as some we've tried, of course. But when our own brand Who What Wear Collection has a sale, you better believe we can vouch for each piece and highlight the details that make them special. And as the brand’s creative director, I basically hang out with these pieces all day and own a ton of them. So, I decided to pull my favorites from the latest additions to our sale section. I’m being as non-partial as possible when I say the quality is insanely high for the price, and the styles are wearable and timeless. Ahead, my top picks. 

I have these pants, and they are so high quality and deliciously soft. They are absolutely perfect for a flight or just lounging around your home. I'll never get rid of them.

I actually have the green color (not the tan—yet), and I usually stick to neutrals, but there's something easy about this hue. It makes me feel "fun," yet is completely wearable. 

Another Who What Wear Collection piece I own! The texture on this midi skirt is gorgeous. It looks super expensive, but you can just throw it in the washing machine, and it never wrinkles. It's truly sophisticated and timeless. A must-buy in my humble opinion!

I helped design this sweater, and it's one of the more perfect pieces we've ever come out with. The yarn is super luxe, and the half-button pullover vibe feels very relevant right now. 

It's a real toss up if the cream is better or the green. Maybe you need both?

Our vegan leather is a national treasure. Just kidding, but it is as good of quality as the super expensive brands. At WWW HQ, it's everyone's favorite. The Laura dress is one of those special gems that make sense in almost any season. It's lined, so it won't stick to you when the weather gets warmer, and the layering opps are great come fall. It's such a good investment, and on sale it becomes a no-brainer.

These mix-and-match knit pieces are perfect for the warmer months. The material has great "recovery," which is industry speak for it doesn't stretch out or get baggy. It will hug your body perfectly. I love how the cardi looks paired with the tank or the dress for a cute '90s moment. 

A really solid tank top is a closet-must have, and this one tops my list. The shape is timeless and classic, but also has really pretty lines. It's a WWWC piece I'll never get rid of.

This dress was made to be form-fitting on top and more flowy on bottom. The slightly curved waistline is super flattering—trust me on this one.

A bodysuit is key for a super tucked-in, polished look. I love how this one has a polo collar, which feels a bit more interesting than your basic tee. 

If you want to take it up a (small) notch from the. black, may we recommend the gray-green version?

The perfect work shirt does exist, and this is it. The silky material says dry clean only, but I've washed mine in the machine with great success. I'm especially taken with the subtle contrast stitching.

I'd venture to guess that you likely have a black turtleneck in your closet. But what about a black turtleneck with a contrast lettuce hem? Now that's cute. And at $34, what are you waiting for?

A little knit skirt with a side slit is the kind of item that you'll reach for again and again.

We call this print abstract animal. It makes a statement, but is still completely wearable in black and white.

I feel like a broken record at this point because my love for fun and flirty dresses runs that deep. But really, where would my summer wardrobe be without them? The world may never know because they currently are the centerpiece of my collection. With the simple addition of a few bright and fun accessories each time I wear the most classic styles in my wardrobe, it feels like I've put on a brand-new, never-seen-before look. 

For that reason, I can't hold back the excitement I felt when I first saw Who What Wear Collection's latest drop. It includes everything I'm looking for this summer, which is currently elevated midi dresses. Before I could give them my official approval, I decided to stage a little try-on myself, and in person, these styles certainly did not disappoint. In the five seconds it took for me to slip these dresses over my head, I felt transformed as I became a chic French woman on a picturesque walk to the local boulangerie. The power of these dresses is unmatched, so I insist you see them for yourself. With free returns, what do you have to lose? 

I don't think I've ever felt more "snatched" in a casual summer dress than I did when I slipped this one on. It starts with a Bridgerton-esque laced-up bustier that flares out into a chic skirt. Woven from organic linen, the fabric felt so light and breezy on my skin. No matter the forecast, I just know that I'll stay cool while wearing it. My favorite close-up detail that I didn't even notice when adding it to my cart is the scrunching of the shoulder straps.

The fanfare over the matching set isn't going anywhere, so I'm fangirling over this one. It's guaranteed to be a hit this summer. The effortless drop skirt is such a chic silhouette that gives me retro vibes. I have a feeling Jane Birkin would want to wear this. My favorite part of this dress overall, though, has to be the buttons. Ordering a pair of earrings to match is definitely a good idea.

She's back and better than ever. The Daphne dress was a fashion-editor favorite last summer, and I'm very excited to see it reintroduced. Ruching is going to be big this summer, and this style really flatters the bust. I'm planning on living in this tan colorway, so this dress will be worn over and over.

Up Next: Our Editors Always Get Compliments When They Wear These 11 Things

Ever since our launch of Who What Wear Collection in 2021, each drop has only gotten better. With constant feedback from editors, customers, and what's new in the sartorial world, the brand has quickly evolved into a fashion-set favorite. Not only is it worn by our team, but the pieces have been spotted on some of our favorite influencers and celebrities. As editors, we have the privilege of trying out the pieces before they drop and of course, we secretly have our own favorites if the bunch. We're not a fan of gatekeeping here at Who What Wear, so we've share our top picks from the collection ahead. These pieces always bring in the compliments when we're walking down the street and at least a few DMs and comments asking for the details. 

Below, you'll find our 11 picks from our line and how our team has styled them. It was like picking the best from our own children, so you're welcome for the insider scoop. Some are from the newest drop and some are old but gold—just keep scrolling to have a look for yourself. 

Drew Midi Dress

When we first launched the Drew dress in 2021, it sold out within a matter of days. It's everything you'd want in a dress, from the luxe plissé fabric to the trend-forward cutout. We couldn't help but bring it back—get on board before it sells out again.

Matilda Wavy Ribbed Cardigan

2022 has been the year of green, and this is a great piece to incorporate a subtle pop of color into your wardrobe. Plus, it's a soft and comfortable knit so you just know it'll get a ton of wear.

Mimi Cardigan

If there's any piece in this story that really brings in the compliments, it's this sweater. It has this relaxed chunky silhouette, and the flowers are perfectly trendy in a non-cheesy way.

Haley Corset Bodysuit

Our editor Eliza was never a huge fan of bodysuits, but this one had the power to change her mind. It not only is stylish with the unique neckline, but is non-restrictive and has a flattering shape. 

Betsy Crochet Bamboo-Cotton Blend Knit Polo

Crochet is in for summer, and this polo top is a great way to wear the trend this season in a more classic way. It's easy, chic, and relaxed—which is what we all want in a top, no?

Mille Deep V-Neck Sweater and Grace Pull-On Pants

While this set may seem like a simple option, it's still a fan favorite. (We have the sales numbers to prove it.) Not only is it extremely comfy, but it's an easy way to look put-together without too much thinking.
