Β Summer in the City: The Art of Dressing for Urban Heat

City summers are equal parts dazzling and demanding. The trick? Effortless, elevated pieces that stand up to heat and hustle.
This geometric dress is the star of the showβmodern art in motion, softened by earth tones and anchored with practical elegance. Pair it with a wide-brim hat, gold jewelry, and your choice of a sleek city tote or textured fringe bag. For footwear, youβve got options: opt for sophisticated flats when walking is a must, or slide into statement sandals for terrace drinks.
This look is sunshine-ready, sidewalk-smart, and unapologetically stylish.
