As soon as I realise there’s a gap in my wardrobe, Zara is almost always the first place I head. Call it an occupational hazard, but I can happily lose an hour scrolling the new-in section in search of that one piece that suddenly makes everything else in my wardrobe feel fresh again. So, when I recently noticed my summer wardrobe was missing a few essentials—a flowing skirt here, a pretty blouse there—I did what I always do and opened the Zara app.

To my delight, I was met with a collection that felt altogether more elevated. Think beautifully embroidered separates, soft butter yellows, fluid tailoring and romantic blouses that wouldn’t look out of place on the streets of Paris. The overall mood is effortless, understated and undeniably French-inspired—the kind of wardrobe that looks expensive without trying too hard.

From chic linen dresses and elegant Bermuda shorts to polished sandals, sculptural bags and the prettiest tops I’ve seen all season, these are the new-in Zara pieces that immediately earned a place in my basket
