TROPICAL TREAT

Chic & Sun-Kissed: Your Guide to Resort Party Dressing

Written By: Priyanka Bimal

More than anything, resort dressing is about mood. It’s about the joy of escape and the subtle drama of good fashion in great settings.

There’s something about the resort party vibe that invites both effortlessness and extravagance. Whether you're lounging poolside with a cocktail, watching the sunset over a private bay, or dancing under moonlit skies, your outfit should echo the mood: relaxed yet refined, minimal yet memorable. Resort party dressing is a delicate balance — it should feel like an extension of your holiday glow, all while turning heads for all the right reasons.

This guide is designed to help you nail the aesthetic, one sun-kissed setting at a time. From crochet co ords to breezy maxis, and sculpted drapes to luxe loungewear, here’s how to make a statement wherever your vacation takes you. Bonus? Each look is backed by designers who know exactly how to blend high fashion with island ease.

Crochet has taken over the trend radar — and for good reason. Textured, breathable, and a little bit cheeky, crochet pants are the ultimate poolside flex. Enter Matini, whose signature crochet pieces blend a touch of boho with resort-level sophistication. Think wide-leg silhouettes or shorts in sun-washed tones or bold brights that let your swimwear peek through just enough.

There’s loungewear — and then there’s Versace loungewear. If your resort plans include yacht decks, chic evening aperitifs, or exclusive rooftop gatherings, luxe loungewear is your go-to mood. Versace takes comfort to a glamorous new level with silk sets, gold accents, and bold prints that turn even the most relaxed silhouettes into fashion statements.

Think silk pajama-style trousers paired with a matching button-down, worn open over a bikini top or bralette. Or an ornate kaftan robe cinched at the waist with the house’s signature baroque detailing.

When golden hour hits, nothing says elegance quite like a beautifully draped resort dresses or skirt. The fluidity, the movement, the way fabric catches the light — it’s the kind of understated drama a sundowner soirée demands. Zimmermann, known for his architectural silhouettes, reimagines draping in fresh, resort-ready hues. His dresses often feature cinched waists and asymmetrical hemlines that flatter the figure and float effortlessly in the breeze. For a softer, more romantic take, look to Zimmermann. Their signature blend of florals, feminine cuts, and fluttery fabrics captures the essence of an upscale beach party.

Swimwear is the heart of resort style — but at a resort party, it needs to do more than just exist. It should make a statement, move with you, and easily transition from poolside lounging to casual mingling. Enter Zimmermann, the brand that nails sleek bohemian instincts with a fashion-savvy edge. Their swimsuits are clean, sculptural, and flattering — think high-cut one-pieces in earthy tones, or halter bikinis in soft pastel ribbing. But the real magic lies in their cover-ups: mesh maxis, breezy shirt dresses, and sheer sarongs that elevate swimwear into an entire outfit.

Elevate Your Resort Look

A breezy maxi resort dress is the unsung hero of resort party dressing. It’s elegant without trying, comfortable without compromising, and endlessly photogenic — especially when it’s designed by Etro. Known for its rich prints, bohemian undertones, and luxe fabrics, Etro maxi dresses are made for warm evenings under string lights and stars.

No resort party outfit is complete without the right accessories — and more importantly, the right attitude. Think oversized hats, sculptural gold earrings, beaded clutches, and strappy footwear that’s beach-friendly but still fashion-forward. The goal is to look relaxed, but like you planned every detail — and that balance comes from thoughtful styling. So whether you're sipping champagne on a terrace or dancing barefoot on the beach, dress like you're the sun-kissed main character — because you are.
