Sequined shorts. Surf-printed cargos. Raffia shoes. Mesh totes. Chiffon tunics. The lot.

Jun 29, 2026

This is EVERY BODY GETS DRESSED’s weekly edit of the only newness, sales, and restocks worth your attention.

Ciao Lucia’s pink embellished pants from last week’s newsletter clearly struck a chord. They now also come in highlighter green, and Siedres’ white sequined low-rise pair is giving them real competition for the coolest pants of the summer.
Chan Luu's High Summer delivery landed and my wishlist is a happy mess. The techno taffeta shorts now come in two-toned colorways, and the teal pair with the surfer-chick floral print combines the two summer trends I’m gladly surrendering to. This sequined chiffon tunic covers both ends of a vacation plan: nice dinner one night, beach cover-up the next day. The striped and mesh totes do enough for the simplest heatwave outfits.
In the same surfer-chick register, this floral surfboard pant is easily the most exciting thing High Sport has released since first going viral.
New pieces hit the Aflalo sale, including my favorite item this week: these butter-yellow sequined silk shorts. The Lolana pant is also half off.

Almost everything on the Maria de la Orden site is on sale. I have this top and it’s a compliment-magnet.
Baserange launched its autumn collection and sale in the same week. From the new collection, I like the matching slip top and elastic-waist pants in soft purple crinkle linen. Style with silver statement jewelry and salted hair. To play with sheer layers, the sheer lyocell T-shirt now comes in soft lilac (with many other colors in the sale) with the matching triangle bra underneath. Or layer under this tank. The Pictorial top is back. With adjustable drawstrings and several ways to wear it, it captures what Baserange does best: soft, minimal pieces with utilitarian versatility built in. From the sale, I’d also flag the Shok square top in crinkle linen with exposed contrast seams, another Baserange signature.
Aritzia’s up-to-50%-off sitewide sale could be the solution to your vacation wardrobe gaps: a jersey tank in a specific pastel color, striped track shorts, and other oddly specific summer pieces. This linen top and this delicate crochet tank stood out to me as pieces that feel more luxe and would look right at home in a TOTEME collection.
Every summer, when I shop for dresses, I get stuck between two camps. One is all going-out energy, deep V, cutouts, the constant threat of a nip slip. The other goes full prim: ruffles, eyelet, too much fuss. Net-a-Porter has just brought in a batch of new resortwear brands, and Cala de la Cruz seems to land in the middle. Flirty but easy to wear. Everything I wishlisted is under $500, including this printed linen dress, this cutout yellow one, and this strappy mini.

You might love the gathered sarong skirt look people are wearing with short-sleeve tees and long-sleeve button-downs, but not the part where you have to tie it properly and fuss with it all day. This printed cotton gauze skirt from Staud gets you the same relaxed, wrapped effect without the headache. It also comes in a matcha green.
The summer shoes I’m most tempted by this week are these raffia-and-leather flats from Andrea Gomez. If you wear more highly saturated colors, go black. If you wear soft pastels, go white: it reflects light and makes those shades appear more luminous. Close behind are Lucasheva’s bejeweled Amélie heeled mules, a Y2K fever dream. More sizes and colors here.
I went into COS to see which new arrivals are as good in person as they are online. This minidress and this one were clear winners, while this one only looks good on the website. This skirt is just as good in person, but in ivory, it is sheer enough that nude underwear is non-negotiable. The contrast-piped satin shirt-and-shorts set has more weight than I expected, which makes it feel more expensive.

There’s a new LESET tee in town. Launched as part of their June collection, the Milo tee is cut from their new Japanese soft dry cotton jersey with a fluid drape and subtly sheer finish. It’s softer and stretchier than the Margo and a lot lighter.
Frame low-rise Gray jeans get two limited-edition washes for summer: cotton-candy pink and pale limoncello yellow. Both washes are available in Petite length.
Jamie Haller is having a private sale. You can only access it via this link and must use the code PRIVATESALE at checkout to get 40% off. Before the sale started, many sizes were already sold out, so I recommend filtering by size. Yesterday, the brand also restocked the leather Walking Sandal in black and launched the Rope Tie pants and cargo shorts. The shorts tap into the relaxed, softly structured silhouette everyone seems to be leaning toward this summer.

Every morning, my walk back from the gym cuts through Kensington school drop-off, where at least one chic mom is wearing Nili Lotan’s Shon pant. They are the barrel pants to end all barrel pants, with an exaggerated horseshoe shape their fans can’t get enough of. New versions landed with Nili’s new collection: the cotton Shon in dark walnut, the wool Shon and leather Shon in midnight blue, and the jeans in an ash gray wash. Those who own several pairs recommend sizing down. If you’re worried about the full bow-legged effect, the Tribeca barrel is a gentler way in.
Emme Parsons launched a low-key summer sale over the weekend, and there’s still a decent size run available. I love these.

Margaux and Alex Mill collaborated on the Selene flat. In red satin, it has high wardrobe equity: a bright accent with a satin finish plays well against summer textures from linen pants to crochet. Margaux also launched its archive sale, with classic styles like the Phoebe and Fonteyn included, and debuted a new sandal silhouette: the Vesta. Think thin, minimal straps and a molded footbed. All pairs are available in narrow, medium, and wide widths.
A palate cleanser for anyone who has reached their limit with cutesy, colorful pieces: Helmut Lang’s latest arrivals include this dress and this one, for the true ’90s minimalists who are relieved the CBK cosplay frenzy has quieted down.

NOTEWORTHY BEAUTY LAUNCHES

There are creators whose recommendations I will buy on sight. For haircare, I buy what Abbey Yung tells me. For skincare, I follow Charlotte Palermino’s lead. For makeup, I listen to Julia Fittro and Katie Jane Hughes. Katie especially: I have learned so much from her that I am close to owning every product KJH Brand has released. This week’s order was the new Fresh Start brush soap, which forced me to confront how long I had gone without washing my brushes. I also added the Prism lip crayon in Mirage and the Precision sculpture stylo in Etch to my cart, which unlocked a free brush at checkout.

Loopha, the bath-and-body-focused sister brand to The Ordinary, launched a Hand + Body Water Cream. Where The Ordinary is strictly fragrance-free, Loopha is built around fragrance layering. This is a product category I care about a lot in summer, when all my perfumes suddenly feel too heavy or formal and I switch to body sprays and creams. They sent me Oud + Amber: it’s light, almost gel-like, and the scent actually lingers.
Medik8 sent me their latest launch, the Exo-PDRN Prismatic+ serum, a rejuvenation-focused product inspired by polynucleotide treatments. I need a few weeks before I can give it a proper verdict, but the bar is high: their Crystal Retinal (strength 6 is enough for me) and the C-Tetra Luxe serum are two products I have been repurchasing for close to a decade.
