What and When is Resort Season?

• In the fashion world, resort season is a mid-season or pre-season line that typically starts in November.
• Resort wear is designed for travel, warm-weather and resort getaways.
• Resort wear for women 50+

Imagine this: you’re lounging by the Four Seasons Wailea infinity pool, the sun in shining and *poof* a Mai Tai appears in-hand. You can hear the pacific waves crashing ashore and as the tide washes away, so does your to-do list. Magical right?

You’re probably thinking to yourself “that sounds wonderful, but Summer is over.” We hear you lady. But before you trade your golden glow for those Winter blues, we’d like to introduce you to the sunshine-all-year, tropically-inspired, put-a-smile-on wardrobe staples. Yep, we’re talking about Resort Wear.

So what IS Resort Wear?

From tropical tankinis to date-night dresses, Resort Wear is clothing designed with your next getaway in mind. Featuring comfortable and versatile fabrics like Rayon and wrinkle-resistant sport knits, our resort wear collection was curated with all of the best 2022 styles, fabrics and fits in mind. Just think: your wardrobe went on a hiatus to Maui and came home forever-changed. Sounds bright and beautiful right? Right!

This resort wear collection includes preppy yet elegant dresses, bright-colored golf-clothes (for that golf-centric getaway) and vibrant swimwear for your days by the pool. Not going anywhere soon? We’ve got you covered. Pair bold statement pieces like our Tropical Paradise clutch with some Gripeless Pull-on-pants for an eye-catching look that will turn everyday into vacay.

When is Resort Season?
