Dressing for a heatwave is a delicate art — one that involves linen, claw clips, and an emotional support iced latte. These are the 5 outfits that will get you through it (and maybe even make it to your Pinterest board).

For when you want zero cling, zero sweat, zero effort. A floaty maxi in linen or cotton is your heatwave bestie — it moves when you walk, breathes like a dream, and requires exactly no styling stress. Just add a sandal, a slick bun, and an air of mystery.

When you’re glistening like a disco ball but pretending it’s “just a glow.” This is your sunset-hour power look: a golden metallic top breezy enough to keep cool but bold enough to turn heads. Add a sleek sandal, gold jewelry, and sunglasses that say, “I summer in Saint-Tropez.”

Breezy, matchy, and built for movement. This is the outfit equivalent of air conditioning — a set that looks polished but feels like pajamas. Style it with a hair clip, sporty sandals, and that smug “I’m not overheating” attitude.

Your look is cool, even if the water’s not. Think: statement swimsuit, sheer cover-up, oversized sunglasses, and an energy that says “Yes, this is my third spritz and yes, I still look flawless.” Made for sun-soaked lounging, spontaneous selfies, and not actually swimming.
Top: Zara Tank Top
Shirt: Oysho Linen Shirt
Swimwear: Oséree Striped Bikini
Sunnies: COS Round Sunglasses

It’s giving “I got dressed in 12 seconds but look like a CEO on vacation.” This black jumpsuit is sleek, minimal, and secretly the comfiest thing you own. Throw on slides, a bold lip, and call it effortless glamour — because it is.
