What to pack for your vacation: the perfect looks for the beach, the city, and the mountains

Packing a beach holiday suitcase means imagining days that begin on the shore and end with dinner along the seafront. That’s why every piece should be versatile, able to transform while always maintaining a sense of relaxed elegance.

For her, the bikini remains the symbol of summer, but this season stands out with sophisticated and timeless styles, such as the Hunza G bikini, renowned for its iconic crinkle fabric and its flattering fit designed to enhance every silhouette. Those who prefer more essential lines can choose the Tory Burch one-piece swimsuit, a style that goes beyond traditional beachwear, becoming a true body that can also be worn away from the beach.

Paired with the paisley print cotton-silk blend trousers by Mc2 Saint Barth, it creates a refined resort look perfect for a seaside lunch or a sunset aperitif. Completing the outfit, the Versace pareo skirt adds a glamorous touch, transforming the swimsuit into an elegant beach outfit with a simple gesture.

The men’s wardrobe follows the same philosophy. The Versace swim shorts perfectly embody contemporary luxury and become even more sophisticated when worn with the Mc2 Saint Barth linen shirt, ideal for the warmest hours thanks to its lightweight feel. For a more urban holiday look, simply replace the shirt with the MM6 Maison Margiela short-sleeve T-shirt, creating an essential and contemporary summer outfit that effortlessly transitions from the beach to the city centre.

The secret to the perfect suitcase is choosing pieces that can be reinvented. A pareo can become a skirt, a one-piece swimsuit can transform into a body, and a linen shirt can become a refined beach cover-up. These combinations are what make a suitcase light yet incredibly versatile, allowing you to create countless holiday looks with just a few carefully selected pieces.

Vacations are not only about the sea. Strolling through the streets of an art city, shopping, visiting museums, and enjoying outdoor dinners require travel outfits that can easily adapt to every occasion, offering the perfect balance between comfort and elegance.

To travel in style, the wide leg trousers by Soeur are the ideal starting point. Paired with the Victoria Beckham top, minimal and refined, they create a sophisticated look that can be completed with the lightweight wool cardigan by Polo Ralph Lauren, perfect when the evening air becomes cooler. On your feet, the New Balance 740 sneakers ensure maximum comfort while travelling, becoming the perfect airport outfit sneakers, while the Guglielmo Rotta sandals effortlessly transform the same look into a more elegant evening proposal.

Dresses also become precious allies for the summer 2026 wardrobe. The Etro mini dress, enhanced by a waist belt, is perfect for an aperitif or an informal dinner, while the Farm Rio midi dress, with its vibrant prints and tropical charm, gracefully accompanies days spent discovering a new destination.

The summer 2026 accessories complete every look and express the personality of the wearer. The Le Turismo maxi bag by Jacquemus is the perfect companion for city breaks thanks to its generous size, while the Rabanne raffia bucket bag embodies one of the season’s biggest trends, ideal both in the city and during a seaside holiday. To protect from the sun, contemporary-style caps and the Jacquemus sunglasses add character even to the most essential outfits.

The mountain getaway also requires a carefully planned weekend suitcase. The Gorpcore trends continue to influence the fashion world, blending outdoor aesthetics with contemporary luxury.

For her, layering is the key to every look. The Victoria Beckham merino wool and cashmere sweater provides warmth without sacrificing lightness, while the The Attico oversized checked shirt adds a relaxed touch to the outfit. The MM6 Maison Margiela wide-leg jeans complete an elegant mountain outfit, made even more functional by the Ganni cap and the Brunello Cucinelli multi-pocket backpack, perfect for stylish walks and hikes.

For him, technical style meets the heritage of iconic brands. The waxed cap and Barbour fleece-lined vest become essential for cooler days, while the Stone Island Nylon Metal ECONYL® technical jacket protects against wind and rain without compromising on design. Underneath, the MM6 Maison Margiela denim shirt and Jil Sander jeans create an essential and contemporary look.

On his feet, the iconic Red Wing boots confidently tackle every trail, while the Keen sandals are the ideal choice for summer hikes and moments of relaxation.

The most important rule when packing your suitcase is simple: choose clothing pieces that can be mixed and matched in different ways. A linen shirt can become a beach cover-up, a one-piece swimsuit transforms into a bodysuit, a lightweight cardigan is perfect for both travel days and summer evenings, while a well-chosen pair of trousers can adapt to completely different occasions.

Organizers, packing cubes, and the rolled-clothing method help optimize every inch of space, but it is above all the quality of the selection that makes the difference when creating the perfect suitcase.
