Summer In Silk: The Edit

Summer In Silk: The Edit

When it comes to summer dressing, there’s nothing quite like silk. Lightweight, breathable and effortlessly elegant, it's the fabric that works just as well for a city brunch as it does a beachside dinner. At Lily Rou, we’re redefining laid-back luxury with timeless silhouettes and subtle statement pieces that are designed to be worn on repeat.

From relaxed co-ords to versatile slip skirts and wedding-ready dresses, here’s how to wear summer in silk the Lily Rou way.

The Relaxed Co-Ord

If there’s one outfit formula we’re relying on this season, it’s the silk co-ord. The pairing of a fluid silk shirt and matching shorts is not only polished but endlessly wearable. Ideal for warm city days, long-haul getaways, and everything in between, this is your easy answer to looking pulled-together without trying too hard.

Style tip: Layer over swimwear for daytime or team with barely-there sandals and a gold chain for dinner al fresco.

The Slip Skirt

A good slip skirt will carry you through the summer season and beyond. Ours are cut on the bias from our signature sandwashed silk - making them as flattering as they are comfortable. The subtle sheen catches the light beautifully, while the fluid fit means they move with you.

Style tip: Pair with an oversized white shirt, tucked or tied, for a simple but impactful look.

The Slip Dress

Whether it’s a garden party, coastal wedding, or last-minute getaway, a silk dress is the answer to “what do I wear?” this summer. Think effortless elegance with feminine detail - from backless halternecks to delicate tie straps. These are the pieces that look and feel like forever wardrobe staples.

Style tip: Add a low heel and slicked-back hair for a minimalist take on event dressing.


Why Silk?

Silk has been at the heart of Lily Rou since day one. It's comfy yet chic and brings that effortless elegance for every occasion. Naturally breathable and biodegradable, it’s a conscious luxury you can feel good about wearing.

Ready-To-Wear, Resort-Inspired

From long lunches to long-haul flights, Lily Rou silk pieces are designed to transition effortlessly — from season to season, day to night, and destination to destination. Whether you're dressing for a summer wedding, layering up for a cooler evening, or just elevating the everyday — this is your go-to warm weather wardrobe, done properly.
