The promise of sea and sun had designers setting sail on the runways this season. Their destination? The Riviera - but not as you know it. This season, Breton stripes are still in abundance, but this summer they’re teamed with elegant palazzo pants and crisp tailoring. Then there are the colours: shy away from red (too obviously nautical) and follow Miuccia Prada’s lead in other eye-popping primaries - Equipment’s turquoise blouse is just the ticket. Next stop, St Tropez.
