Stripes

There’s something about stripes that evoke a sense of summer. Perhaps it’s because the most famous stripe – the Breton – claims its roots from French navy officers, but soon became a fashion mainstay after Coco Chanel designed a collection around this nautical theme in the early 1900s. Since then, the stripe has evolved into a plethora of color combinations, sizes, and directions, and has been spotted on everyone from Audrey Hepburn to Olivia Palermo to Beyonce. Whether you wear your stripes emblazoned on a swimsuit, a t-shirt, a dress, or a pair of espadrilles, incorporate stripes for a statement-making ensemble.
