The best <strong>\u00e0 la plage<\/strong> outfits begin with pieces that move from the sand to lunch without losing composure. A draped <strong>pareo<\/strong> gives a <strong>one-piece swimsuit<\/strong> a more fluid line, while an <strong>oversized shirt<\/strong> brings that easy elegance usually reserved for people who seem to have packed in ten minutes and still look impeccably edited, which is either a gift or a very advanced form of vacation strategy.<\/p>\n<h1>The <strong>Pareo<\/strong> Is Back as the Chicest Beach Uniform<\/h1>\n        <blockquote class=\"instagram-media \" style=\"background: #ffffff;border: 0;margin: 1px;width: 100%;padding: 0;\"  data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DJEvkV3NdAi\/\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\"><\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The <strong>pareo<\/strong> has always belonged to the mythology of beach glamour, although fashion periodically pretends to have discovered it for the first time. Its latest revival found a very persuasive ambassador in <strong>Jacquemus<\/strong>, who turned the wrapped skirt into a super-chic summer statement with the custom-made look created for <strong>Charlotte Le Bon <\/strong>for the third season of <em><strong>The White Lotus<\/strong><\/em> (by the way, you can still <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacquemus.com\/en_us\/the-pareo-skirt\/SKW00084BW00565410.html?gad_campaignid=21375787381&amp;gad_source=1&amp;gbraid=0AAAAACefaT6zJfy1dnwdIDoPifzcwX1Ew&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQjwxvjRBhC2ARIsAI7KJa0sQol-jtUeHp4TiNWG46o0cPJ8FVpcmwAISI5T5D43IVhiiD5uf54aAiFQEALw_wcB&amp;utm_campaign=21375787381&amp;utm_content=196389636933&amp;utm_medium=cpc&amp;utm_source=google&amp;wiz_campaign=21375787381&amp;wiz_medium=cpc&amp;wiz_source=google\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>buy it!<\/strong><\/a>). The fact that a similar version now belongs to the brand\u2019s shopping universe only confirms the obvious. The <strong>pareo<\/strong> has left the emergency-cover-up category and entered the realm of objects that can build an entire look around a swimsuit. That Jacquemus moment feels like the cherry on top of a much longer history. <strong>Elizabeth Taylor<\/strong> wore scarves around the waist with the authority of someone who understood beach dressing as a form of cinema. <strong>Brigitte Bardot<\/strong> helped turn Riviera swimwear into a cultural language rather than a holiday detail. <strong>Sophia Loren<\/strong> made the <strong>one-piece swimsuit<\/strong> look monumental, proving that a simple silhouette could carry more drama than most evening gowns. Today, the formula works because it borrows from that lineage without looking archival. A low-slung <strong>pareo<\/strong> over a clean <strong>one-piece swimsuit<\/strong> gives the body a softer line and makes the whole outfit feel ready for a seaside lunch that may have started as \u201cjust a quick swim.\u201d<\/p>\n<h1>The <strong>Oversized Shirt<\/strong> as an Ironic Couture Twist on Office Dressing<\/h1>\n        <blockquote class=\"instagram-media \" style=\"background: #ffffff;border: 0;margin: 1px;width: 100%;padding: 0;\"  data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DZk1KkRjYPZ\/?hl=it&amp;img_index=1\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\"><\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The other great <strong>\u00e0 la plage<\/strong> move is the <strong>oversized shirt<\/strong>, which works precisely because it looks like an elegant distortion of office dressing. The shape belongs to the workday, but the intention has completely changed. Instead of trousers, there is a swimsuit. Instead of a desk, there is the sea. The result feels chic because it keeps the authority of a crisp shirt and redirects it toward summer, as if the most serious piece in the wardrobe had quietly decided to abandon all meetings and book a beach chair. Worn alone, the <strong>oversized shirt<\/strong> becomes a refined cover-up with the attitude of a mini dress. Left open over a one-piece or buttoned just enough over a bikini, it gives beachwear a sharper line without making it look too studied. With a <strong>pareo skirt<\/strong>, the effect becomes even more interesting, because the shirt brings structure while the pareo keeps the look fluid. It is almost a couture joke on the office uniform, only with bare legs, wet hair and the very clear intention of spending the day by the water.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":42787,"featured_media":113015,"template":"","format":"standard","categories":[17],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin
