31 Chic and Effortless Items Perfect for a Summer Vacation

If you've had Diane von Furstenberg pinned as the place maximalists shop, you're not wrong, but that's only half the picture. I'm currently shopping for vacation, and I went in expecting only colorful prints (yes, they are very much still there), but I came out surprised by how many simple, versitile staples there are too. As it turns out, DVF does both: the bold and the understated, especially if you still wear black on a beach trip. The brand may be best known for its iconic eye-catching patterns, but it's also expanded into a more refined, everyday aesthetic.

That said, maximalism was all over the fall/winter 2025 runways, and what's being referred to as loud luxury took over at Saint Laurent, Tory Burch, Bottega Veneta, and Chanel. Whether you're devoted to pared-back essentials, loyal to statement pieces, or somewhere in between, I've included something for everyone.
