Men’s Capsule Holiday Wardrobe

Holidays offer a chance to relax, soak up the sun and explore new places. Perfect, except for the deciding ‘what to pack’ dilemma that everyone experiences before going. At Repertoire we understand the stress of the picking which essential items make it into the suitcase and which you can live without. With that in mind, here’s our guide to which key pieces to pack this summer.

 

The first and foremost is a bag – pack your clothes for the pool or even the beach in a bag such as the Ralph Lauren Polo Player Bag for easy yet stylish carrying of your belongings. For an on-trend bag for around the town, go for either the Kenzo Backpack or if you’re looking for something more compact, opt for the Emporio Armani Crossbody Bag.

Polo shirts are always a fail safe option, so pack two different styles: a casual day polo shirt for beach lounging and city walking and a more sophisticated fitted number for dinners and drinks. Our favourites? For the day, a BOSS Polo, and for the evening, a smarter Emporio Armani Polo.

Shorts are a must whether they be for swimming or for out on the town. For day-to-day wear, opt for the BOSS Chino Shorts or for something more relaxed, a pair of BOSS Athleisure Shorts. When it’s time for a swim, if you’re looking for something to stand out in the pool or sea, a pair of Vilebrequin Moorea Swimming Trunks will be the perfect fit. If you’re looking for something more toned down, add Orlebar Brown Swim Shorts to your holiday wardrobe.

Footwear, it goes without saying, is pretty much essential to most vacations, from sandals to a pair of comfortable trainers. From Swims Loafers for around the pool and beach and the Veja trainers for a comfortable piece of footwear for walking around the town, we’ve got plenty of holiday footwear to choose from. Don’t forget to take a pair of smart shoes for the evenings too, when you want to go a bit more dressy, like a pair of BOSS loafers.

T-Shirts, like polo shirts, are a versatile holiday basic. From graphic t-shirts like the Billionaire Boys Club Logo T-Shirts to plainer styles such as the BOSS Athleisure T-Shirts, we’ve got you covered.

Once you’re all packed, whatever you do, don’t forget the sun cream!
