River Island High Summer 2018

River Island has fast become a great go to place for easy, breezy summer style. This summer, the brand has outdone itself with a superb collection of staple pieces that showcase a flair for luxury and uniqueness. 

Carefully blurring the lines between smart and casual, the offering is full of luxurious streetwear in statement fabrics - think embellished T shirts and sweaters in gold and black. The humble tracksuit is surprisingly minimalist which makes it perfect for teaming with short sleeved shirts in floral and check prints or a knitted polo, but we would recommend embracing the contemporary trend of combining casual and formal wear with the dandified suits and trousers in lilac, soft grey and navy. Perfect for the office bound with a slimming silhouette and premium cloths, there is also a line of more swag jacquard blazers and cropped trousers. 

As ever with River Island, the range is full of pieces that you can wear all year round and again and again. For us, the strongest pieces are the dust tans and browns, superb cream suiting and the trusty knitted polo which all boast that preppy Ive League summer style that is oh so enviable.
