River Island | Summer Essentials
Kaftans and Kimonos
Summer’s coolest cover up is without a doubt a kaftan or kimono. This is where prints, be they tropical, floral or tribal are going to shine. As far as embellishments go, embroidery and tassels are the way to go.

High-waisted shorts
Forget #ThrowbackThursday. Rather take a little style inspiration from the 70s with a flattering pair of super-stretchy high-waisted denim shorts. With a world of washes to choose from, you’ll be sure to find your perfect fit.

Playsuits
A pretty little dress is one thing but a flirty playsuit is this season’s slip-on-and-go must-have. Team them with metallic flats and a fringed bag for day or block heels and a look-at-me clutch when the sun starts to set.
