The Perfect Luxury Capsule Wardrobe For Summer 2023

Slow fashion is perfect for summer.

With each new season, it's tempting to buy an entire new wardrobe of clothes but fast fashion is neither sustainable nor timeless. Instead, focus on finding the right well-made luxury pieces to last for years to come and also add more versatility to your summer closet. For summer 2023, think classic cuts with quality construction. And, if you’d like to take the thought out of packing for your next vacation or navigating the warm summer months, consider cutting your wardrobe down to a capsule of just the most versatile necessities to make your life easier. The following luxury summer pieces are perfect for a capsule wardrobe or simply adding some fresh yet lasting style to your closet.

Chelsea One Piece by Onia

The first essential for summer is a quality swimsuit. This Chelsea One Piece by Onia has a classic but flirty balconette cut that is perfect for whatever water activity you have planned this summer. It stays put and offers better coverage than a two-piece, which makes it a great addition to a capsule wardrobe. And, the sculpting effect of the vertical seaming and tricot swim fabric makes for an ultra flattering suit.
