Created by Pia Regala-Hebron who has also designed for Rustan’s brands like Caravan, Jill and Luna, Lady Rustan’s summer collection is inspired by sky, sun and sea, resulting in a color palette that mimics the summer landscape at different points in the day: sky blues, seafoam greens and soft whites, as well as lilacs, blush tones and cool grays. The pieces come in varying textures and fabrics that don’t cling to the body, and comfortable but flattering silhouettes that are made for the current climate.

Embracing trends while keeping it timeless, the collection includes jumpsuits, asymmetrical tops, tie-front culottes, sleeveless tops, mid-length skirts and easy dresses. Each one is a summer staple — relaxed, minimalist and can easily go from roadtrip to beachfront cocktails.
