As we step into 2026, there’s no better time to elevate your resortwear game. Whether you're jetting off to St. Barths or planning summer getaways, these five style resolutions will sharpen your look from beach to bar.

1. Embrace Tailored Swimwear

Ditch the oversized board shorts of yesteryear. In 2026, it's all about mid-thigh, tailored swim trunks that flatter your silhouette. Opt for premium materials with a hint of stretch, water-resistance, and quick-dry function.

2. Curate a Capsule Wardrobe

Invest in fewer, better pieces. Lightweight linen shirts, neutral polos, and multi-functional shorts should make up your vacation arsenal.

3. Lean Into Prints and Color

Tropical-inspired prints and Mediterranean palettes are trending. Think coral, turquoise, and nautical stripes, all of which pair beautifully with sun-kissed skin.

4. Commit to Après Swim Looks

Don’t just dry off and hit the bar in a wet tee. Look for pieces that transition effortlessly: terry cloth polos, resort shirts, and slip-on loafers.
