Sun dappling through the trees, swallows dipping and diving over the water, a gentle breeze playing on your skin as you see droplets trickling down your ice-cold beer. There is not much that beats the feeling of being on holiday. Well, perhaps a close second is looking fresh af while doing it.
Maybe it’s time to turn up the (sun-) dial, and make a statement with your summer vacay fits.
Mr Porter has a penchant for all things elevated - and just a little bit extra. Have a look at this run through of unexpected summer faves that will bring your closet out on the open seas, kind of like Rose clinging to closet debris on the ocean (hot take, but we still think it was big enough to fit Jack).

The Elder Statesman Embroidered Tie-Dyed Cashmere Sweater Vest
The aesthetic of the olds is making a comeback and with this piece from The Elder Statesman, the stylistic slant isn't in question. That generation got one thing right: you can’t go wrong with a sweater vest. Especially one as fun as this one - complete with exaggerated stitching, a bright and bold tie-dye and luxurious cashmere finish. Peacock around in bright tones and add a splash of color to your splash in the pool.
Cherry LA Baja Drag Garment-Dyed Embellished Cotton-Twill Jacket
This cotton-twill jacket is a cut above - cut just above the hip, its emblazoned lettering at the back gives impact for days. This is out-there outerwear and we stan.
Needles Wide-Leg Webbing-Trimmed Embroidered Twill Shorts
The Butterfly Effect is in effect. These embroidered twill shorts are a bright blue, adding a navy hue to a maritime themed workwear short. Transforming from a caterpillar to a butterfly never looked so good. We’re here for the transformation.
Dries Van Noten Wide-Leg Cotton-Blend Mesh Drawstring Shorts
The basketball short reinvention is here. We never thought we’d see it: the mashup of pink tones and mesh + a classic basketball cut = sportswear reimagined. Trust Dries to give us a floating-on-air aesthetic that pairs beautifully with the ocean breeze.
Dime Logo-Embroidered Washed Cotton-Twill Baseball Cap
You’re a dime, and it may be a bit on the money to have it written across your forehead, sure. But you’d definitely be making a statement with this one. A rust orange colorway is not only hot right now, but lends the piece an effortlessness that will elevate any vacay look.
Rhude Rhecess Colour-Block Distressed Leather Sneakers
How Rhude! These bright red sneaks have a cute applique logo across the back, and wrap-around shoelaces for an edgy take on a classic shoe-form. Hand-distressed, these vintage shoes look like they date from their actual inspo era, making it a much more authentic take on classic basketball footwear.
Vetements Printed Cotton-Jersey T-Shirt
If you have no f’s left to give, this one’s for you. This irreverent take on a classic tee takes the ‘f-around-and-find-out' factor to new heights. When you’ve had enough at the office, pack this one down for your weekend getaway and show people - with a care-bear, of all things - how little you care.
Neighbourhood Camp-Collar Printed Crepe Shirt
Don’t get caught in a corporate spiderweb - be free and wear your mental cobwebs on your sleeve. This shirt says spooky, but make it fashion - we are living for the lightweight crepe feel to this shirt.
Collina Strada Clover Checked Cotton-Flannel Trousers
Flannel and tartan? No need to pack an extra pair of pyjamas when you have this on decky. What’s orange and blue all over? These, and that melting ice lolly all over your jeans. Holidays are messy, what can we say.
SAINT MXXXXXX + Dr. Woo Printed Cotton and Silk-Blend Shirt
I mean, it’s a little…literal. For a holiday drop. Here we have an actual world map printed on a cotton-and-silk combo, something for the dads of the friend group to wear and comment, ‘I have the world on my shoulders’.
