Say hello to summer and step inside the world of Theory with our top ten picks to dress, impress and express yourself this season.
Oaklane Trench
The Classic Blazer
The timeless Etiennette blazer is essential for a meeting-packed Monday at the office or evening of networking. Available in six neutral colours, the blazer delicately cinches your waist for a subtle feminine touch. Made of Theory’s fully traceable Good Wool fabric – premium merino wool sourced from an environmentally and socially responsible farm in Tasmania, Australia and woven by an eco-conscious mill in Biella, Italy – the Etiennette is light and airy, perfect for a balmy summer workday. Pair it with the Treeca Trouser to complete the look or jeans for a more casual fit.
The Trim Trouser
You’ll adore the tailored Treeca pant – the perfect cropped trouser to show a little ankle and a lot of style. Paired best with the Etiennette blazer, you can dress it up or down with a smart shirt or printed blouse. With sleek side and back pockets, they’re functional and fun to wear all day and into the night for effortless elegance.
The Trendy Trench Coat
The Oaklane trench coat is a minimalist, relaxed take on the classic trench. Both black and rice colours give off a soft structure to your frame and go with anything you choose to wear underneath. Cut from Theory’s signature Japanese Admiral Crepe fabric woven in the land of the rising sun, the Oaklane will stay wrinkle-free as you wrap up on a breezy summer night.
The Flare with Flair
You’ll stop traffic strutting in the Demitria flare trousers. Consciously made from Theory’s Good Wool, the Demitria flares are a mid-rise miracle. Elongating your legs with a fitted waistband and pressed creases, they’ll give you a boost of confidence from the moment you leave home. Style them with the Etiennette and a short heel for a polished but playful summertime look.
The Silky Shirt
Show off your tanned shoulders in the Shell Top, a simple blouse with a silky finish. Choose from black or ivory, as the Shell Top is a versatile item to add to your capsule wardrobe and ideal for the summer sun. With its straight cut and back keyhole opening with a hook-and-eye closure, the breathable silk georgette is a flirty yet functional summer staple.
Linen Dress
The Lovely Linen Dress
You’ll find endless ways to style the fitted Tie-Back Dress in Stretch Linen. This flowy and fresh sleeveless midi has a square neckline and opens up to an A-line silhouette, with a coquettish back tie cut-out. The form-fitting number is made from Theory’s ethically sourced stretch linen for a soft summery feel. For a fun night in the city, treat yourself to the mini version: the Drape-Back Dress in Good Linen, available in classic black, white and cognac tones.
The Basic Shirt
You’ll need a classic white shirt that’ll last you through the warm summer afternoons at the office. Go for the Menswear Shirt in Good Cotton. With its crisp collar and oversized structure, it’s a button-down inspired by its menswear counterpart comfortable enough to wear all day long. Made from breathable SUPIMA®cotton with buttons tucked behind a hand stitched centred placket, the Menswear Shirt is a summer essential for women at work. For a burst of bright colour, try the Oversized Shirt in Cotton, in carnation.
The Hot Tee
For a comfortable basic you’ll feel yourself in all summer long, the Tiny Tee is quintessential. With fitted short sleeves and a bound crew neckline, this slim and soft breathable shirt is made in Peru from organic Pima cotton jersey. Dress it up with Treeca trousers or keep the look casual for a daytime walk.
The Chic Blazer
Make a statement with the Shrunken Blazer in Seersucker. Crafted from Theory’s stretch cotton-blend seersucker fabric, yarn dyed and made in Italy, this tailored blazer hugs and gives in all the right places. Keep the single button open and pair with a printed top for a casual look or button it up for a slim, more professional fit. Whether you’re strutting to the boardroom or the tap room, you’ll steal the sunny spotlight.
The Smart Dress
Step up your street game with the sleeveless Racerback Dress in Good Linen. Made with Theory’s signature Good Linen woven from three fibres in Prato, Italy, this midi dress is a subtle taste of simplicity, with its fitted silhouette and racerback style. You can pair it with a colour-popping light jacket and eye-catching accessories for a night out, or keep it no-frills for a mid-morning meetup. You’ll love the breathable lightweight feel of the dress, tailor made for a summer day in the city.
