Resort Wear, the Italian Way: Inspired by Forte dei Marmi on the Tuscan Riviera
All Andrea's Journal

Italy is always at the center of my inspiration — in the way women dress, in how they move through their day, and in the quiet confidence woven into even the simplest outfit. This season’s Resort Collection was shaped directly by my time last summer in Forte dei Marmi, a jewel of the Tuscan Riviera known for its understated elegance and timeless coastal charm.

The Effortless Style of Forte dei Marmi

What stayed with me most were the women biking along the coast in simple linen dresses. Nothing overstyled. Nothing trying too hard. Just beautiful fabrics, sun-washed neutrals, fluid silhouettes, and that unmistakable Italian ease.

That is resort wear, the Italian way.

In Forte dei Marmi, style feels natural. Mornings begin with espresso near the water. Afternoons unfold beneath striped beach umbrellas. Evenings transition slowly into aperitivo and dinner by the sea. The wardrobe moves seamlessly with it all — crisp linens, tailored sets, relaxed dresses, and elevated basics designed to mix and match effortlessly.

This collection was created with that same intention: pieces that pack beautifully, style easily, and carry you from day to night without overthinking it.

What Defines Italian Resort Style?

If you’re searching for timeless resort wear inspired by Italy, here’s what sets it apart:

  • Breathable natural fabrics like linen and cotton

  • Neutral, sun-faded tones that complement every setting

  • Silhouettes that skim the body without clinging

  • Versatile pieces that layer and transition with ease

  • An overall feeling of refinement without excess

It’s not about having more. It’s about choosing well.

Planning a Trip to Forte dei Marmi?

If you’re lucky enough to be planning a visit, reserve a spot at one of the iconic beach clubs along the coast and make dinner reservations in advance — the area is home to multiple Michelin-starred restaurants that showcase the best of Tuscan cuisine and hospitality.

But even if Italy isn’t on your calendar just yet, your wardrobe can still transport you there.

This Resort Collection brings the warmth, ease, and elegance of the Tuscan coast into real life — whether that means a weekend getaway, a summer dinner out, or simply dressing beautifully for your everyday.

Resort wear, inspired by Forte dei Marmi. Designed for how you actually live.
