Ahoy, sailor! Here's how Marie Claire is styling the nautical trend
It's time to dig out your Breton stripes and find your sea legs – sartorially speaking, of course. Yes, dear readers – or rather, m'hearties – the nautical trend is back.
As a fashion editor, my in-built trend radar has been picking up signals of a nautical renaissance ever since I spied sailor hats and stripes at the Simone Rocha for Jean Paul Gaultier couture show back in January. I don't know about you, but there's something about a duchesse-satin sailor hat that makes the thought of sailing the Seven Seas considerably more appealing.
Then, Marc Jacobs reimagined the Breton tee at his Autumn/Winter '24 show. And just this month, swimwear label Seabass teamed up with actress, poet and style muse Greta Bellamacina on a collection of nautical-inspired swimsuits and two-pieces.
The accompanying campaign, lensed by Melanie Rodriguez and styled by Rachel Bakewell, sealed the deal for me, as I vowed to have a Nautical Girl Summer at whatever cost. Imagine this one-piece with high-waist jeans, just imagine!
