Effortless Coastal Style: Holland Cooper’s New Collection

The Holland Cooper Coastal Collection has landed just in time for Summer and we couldn’t be more in love! As the weather starts to heat up and the days become longer, Holland Cooper has pulled together a number of beautifully crafted pieces that are perfect for the season ahead.

The collection features a range of lightweight garments that can be easily mixed and matched together to create a number of different outfits for everything from a relaxing summer evening at home to a weekend getaway to the coast.

Each piece in the Holland Cooper collection has been made using a variety of fabrics and colours all based around a soft coastal palette of oatmeal, natural straw and crisp white allowing them to be mixed and matched with other items from your existing wardrobe. With an attention to detail that is typical of Holland Cooper the items have been beautifully crafted creating an understated summer wardrobe that can be dressed up or down as required.

The Perfect Lightweight Summer Knit

For those warm summer days when a gentle breeze comes in from the coast, the new Florence Knitted Top in Natural is the perfect piece to layer up over a lightweight camisole or t-shirt and wear over linen or cotton shorts and trousers.

The top has a slightly cropped length and is perfect to wear over a neutral colored camisole and linen shorts and sandals during the day, and then add some gold jewelry and a woven bag for a relaxed evening of drinks with friends. This is a versatile piece that can be worn throughout spring and summer, and is perfect for adding to a capsule wardrobe.

The Linen Co-Ord You’ll Wear Everywhere

Few fabrics can make one think of summer as much as linen, and Holland Cooper’s new Amalfi collection is the effortless way of wearing it.

The Amalfi Linen Shirt in Oatmeal has an oversized shape. It is cool, comfortable and looks very elegant. The 100% lightweight linen shirt has a classic collar, button-down front, narrow cuffs and is finished with HC-engraved buttons. Wear the shirt loosely buttoned up over a Holland Cooper vest for a casual day time look. The shirt also looks great paired with the Amalfi Linen Shorts in Oatmeal for a more put together look for beach, for a summer country weekend or for events during the summer.

Paired with the matching Amalfi Linen Shorts in Oatmeal, it creates a coordinated look that requires very little styling but still feels beautifully put together.

They have an elasticated waistband and are designed to be easy to slip on and off. There is a flat front and adjustable tie cord to the back of the shorts. There are side pockets for storing items and intricate embroidery at the hem of the shorts.

Wear the shirt loosely buttoned over a simple vest for an easy daytime outfit, or tuck it into the shorts and add structured accessories for a smarter finish. The oatmeal shade keeps the look soft and sophisticated, making it ideal for countryside breaks, beachside lunches and summer events.

Both pieces can also be styled separately. The shirt would look equally chic over swimwear or paired with denim, while the shorts could be worn with a fitted vest, lightweight knit or classic white shirt.

A Crisp White Summer Essential

For those drawn to a brighter summer palette, the Amalfi Linen Shorts in White and the Amalfi Linen Shirt in White offer a fresh alternative.

Crisp white linen is a timeless warm-weather staple and instantly brings a clean, resort-inspired feel to an outfit. Pair the shorts with the Florence Knitted Top for a soft neutral combination, or introduce blue stripes and tan accessories for a classic nautical look.

They are the kind of piece that can move easily between casual and smarter occasions. Add a relaxed T-shirt and slides for sightseeing, or style them with an oversized linen shirt, woven handbag and statement earrings for dinner.

Refined Summer Dressing Made Simple

What makes Holland Cooper’s Coastal Collection so appealing is its ability to make summer dressing feel effortless.

The Holland Cooper pieces in this new collection will be suitable for wear throughout the spring/summer season and then can be packed away and returned to once more the following year for further wear on future summer holidays and also for wear on staycations within the British countryside.

Whether you are spending timelessly stylish or dress in the most casual of ways these new items will be suitable for all tastes and look great whether worn on their own or mixed and matched with all of your current favourite items in your already established wardrobe.
