The Greek islands have an allure like no other, and Santorini is a shining jewel in the Cyclades crown. Its blue-domed houses, caldera views and flaming sunsets are a magnet for visitors, but what do you wear while you’re there? What you’re aiming for is low-key glamour; outfits that work for days spent sunbathing on those famous black sandy beaches, but also pieces that can be adapted for rooftop drinks and fine-dining. Our guide celebrates holiday heroes that do both.
You’ll need a few great dresses – A LWD WITH NIGHTIE ENERGY is ideal for relaxed beach days. Pack breathable separates; a great pair of linen shorts are ELEGANT BUT VERSATILE. Throw-on printed trousers are perfect for wearing on the plane and in the evening – just add one of this season’s must-haves, a HIPPY-ADJACENT BEADED NECKLACE.
Avoid blue and white colour pairings if you want to stand out from other visitors; consider earthy tones and shades of orange – a subtle nod to the island’s world-famous sunset. Arkitaip’s mango-coloured linen mini works for afternoon strolling in white-washed villages and evening drinks in Oia. When it comes to accessories, only a comfortable pair of tan sandals will do – choose a cushioned platform style for a contemporary twist. Don’t underestimate the power of a silk scarf either – wear yours as a top, or to dress up your basket bag.
