Top Luxury Resortwear Options for Women

The year 2025 marks a notable resurgence in resortwear, potentially fueled by the popularity of the HBO series The White Lotus or a collective wish for escapism. This season, holiday fashion is emerging as more sophisticated and upscale than ever before.

Moving away from the overly casual beach styles with loud floral patterns and flashy Hawaiian shirts, modern resortwear is more understated, elegant, and adaptable, suitable for various venues ranging from upscale beach clubs to private airport lounges.

Featuring glamorous options from esteemed brands like Missoni, Camilla, and Loewe, this guide highlights the most luxurious resortwear for women this summer.

Among contemporary resortwear labels, Eleventy offers a chic color palette and simple silhouettes designed for those who might have previously shied away from traditional beach attire. Instead of the expected tropical prints, Eleventy’s collection includes airy open-knit sweaters ideal for layering over bikinis, coordinated linen ensembles perfect for beachside lunches, and tailored dresses that enhance your vacation wardrobe.
