Decoding Summer Dressing—Silk Scarves, Flip Flops, and Grown Women In Baby Tees

It’s funny. No matter how long we have been on this earth, whether 20 years or 40 years or more, getting dressed when it’s brutally hot and/or humid outside is daunting every time summer rolls around. On this week’s edition of The Run-Through, Nicole Phelps is joined by Vogue Runway’s Laia Garcia-Furtado, who writes the weekly style advice column “Addressed,” and Vogue fashion writer Hannah Jackson to discuss summer fashion. They cover both practical topics (what kind of hand-held fan is the best?) and more controversial ones (shirtless men and flip-flops in the city), and also touch upon the season’s hottest trends, from Gen Z girlies in their short-jorts and cowboy boots, to swimsuits as streetwear, to the multi-purpose power of a silk scarf. Hey, if fashion It-boy Timotheé Chalamet and if Dries Van Noten’s Julian Klausner are both endorsing the look, we are too. Another developing trend? Dressing like a haunted doll—what’s that all about?
