The humidity index is about to climb even higher and the Gulf dress code is set to switch to swathes of breezy silk and tactile linens. In good time for high summer, Vogue Arabia previews the fifth partnership between French fashion house Chloé – founded by Egyptian-born Parisienne Gaby Aghion in 1952 – and Net-a-Porter for Summer 2017. The 26-piece collection is infused with the maison’s signature bohemia and romantic spirit but with a specific focus on Ibiza’s style scene circa 1970.

Model Julia Stegner is the face of the campaign and takes the laissez-faire vibe of the 1970s-inspired collection and makes it relevant for 2017. The style take-homes? Tousle your hair, oversized sunglasses on, and to the beach.
