When it comes to holiday dressing, it’s all about pieces that feel easy, breathable and instantly put together. Whether you’re heading away for sunshine, packing for summer dinners, strolling through markets or dressing for evenings out, these are the styles you’ll wear on repeat.
From floaty maxi dresses to lightweight linens and effortless cotton styles, here are our favourite holiday-ready looks from Nicola Ross this season.
Pretty in Pink
The Olivia Mini Dress is the perfect throw-on piece for holiday evenings. The soft pink shade feels fresh and feminine, while the ruffle hem and statement sleeves add just the right amount of detail.
Style it with gold heels for dinner by the marina or dress it down with flat sandals for cocktails at sunset. Lightweight and comfortable, it’s one of those dresses that always looks polished with minimal effort.
Lightweight Linen You’ll Live In
Nothing says holiday dressing quite like linen. The Lil Jen pink linen set is relaxed, breathable and ideal for warm-weather styling.
The sleeveless Lottie top paired with the matching Cody trousers creates an effortlessly chic daytime look — perfect for airport style, sightseeing, lunch dates or beach walks. Add sandals and oversized sunglasses for that easy luxury holiday feel.
Linen is always a suitcase essential because it keeps you cool while still looking elevated and put together.
The Statement Maxi Dress
For nights where you want to make an entrance, the Lola Maxi Dress is your holiday hero piece.
The vibrant pink and orange print instantly brings that sunset-on-holiday energy, while the flowing silhouette creates beautiful movement. Perfect for destination weddings, summer parties or elegant evening dinners abroad.
Pair with gold jewellery and heels for a glamorous holiday look that feels confident and effortless.
Soft Lemon Tones for Summer
Soft pastel shades always come into their own during summer, and this lemon look is no exception.
The Blair Cotton Skirt with the matching Iris top creates a timeless, elevated silhouette while still feeling light and wearable for warm weather. The oversized bow detail adds softness and elegance, making it perfect for garden dinners, summer events or stylish holiday evenings.
A beautiful option if you love understated dressing with a polished finish.
