Emilia Wickstead Resort 2024 Lookbook

Emilia Wickstead's Resort 2024 collection is a confirmation to her creative evolution and her intimate connection with the modern woman. Over the past three years, Wickstead has adopted a narrative approach to her pre-fall lookbooks, capturing her designs on the creative women in her community. This trilogy of lookbooks has become a clever showcase of how Wickstead's creations seamlessly fit into the real lives of her customers, spanning day to night, office to school run. It's a compelling exploration of modern womanhood.

While her previous lookbook celebrated the women in London, her latest collection takes us on a journey to Manhattan, where Wickstead once interned with fashion luminaries like Proenza Schouler and Narciso Rodriguez during her student years. New York holds a special place in her heart, and it's also a strategic choice due to the United States being her fastest-growing market. With new stockists in the U.S., this collection serves as a heartfelt love letter to the city.

The cast of characters in this collection's shoot is a reflection of the brand's evolving appeal. It features both high society women and the next generation of tastemakers in film, fashion, and contemporary art. The collection itself was shaped with these women in mind, adding a dynamic layer to the narrative. Beyond the expected floral prints and classic skirt suits, the collection's more pared-back and playfully styled moments shine. The strapless hourglass dress, adorned with fluoro-green roses and peonies, layered over a ribbed knit, exemplifies this creative styling.

Wickstead's designs, rooted in her British sensibility, effortlessly translate into something bold and quintessentially New York. This collection showcases the versatility of her brand, from the artistic to the everyday, making it a compelling choice for women of diverse tastes.
