When going on holiday, one of the most fun parts of the packing process is figuring out which resort wear brands to bring with you. Whether you’re picking between the comfortable and well-structured one-piece swimsuit to the bright and colorful bikini or flowy maxi dress, they all seem appropriate. Of course, you can’t bring your entire warm-weather wardrobe with you. 

It takes skill and experience to test out and compile a concrete list of brands which are most trustworthy. Comfort, style and quality are huge factors when determining which garment you feel comfortable sacrificing space in your luggage. So here are the top five resort wear brands we believe will make your decision-making process that much easier. 

Hunza G

One of the best parts about a beach holiday is feeding you inner-child by running into the water and throwing yourself against the crashing waves. Us girls know all too well that wearing a bikini may make this activity a little bit too risqué. However, Hunza G has plenty of silhouettes which cover up just that little bit more to ensure that everything stays in place. The brand is dedicated to their One Size Fit mantra which ensures that each silhouette sculptures the wearer’s body in a flattering yet comfortable way.

Not only that, but their colorful and 70s inspired pieces guarantee that you take some extremely instagram-worthy shots to impress your friends back home. If you’re wondering what credibility this brand has on the fashion scene, back in the 90s their white and blue cut-out mini dresses was sported by the one and only Julia Roberts in the blockbuster movie, Pretty Woman. I guess you can say they have a reputable stance on the scene.

Savannah Morrow the Label

Nothing screams ‘sun, beach and adventure’ more than a good-old-fashioned holiday in Australia. That is why Savannah Morrow knows what she is talking about when it comes to the perfect garment to suit this type of relaxation.

Locally handmade and supporting smaller businesses, their designs work in pursuit of achieving sustainability in every single way.

Made by Dawn

This brand is the birth child of wife and husband duo, Dawn and Kirk Peterson. Since starting their fashion journey together in 2010, they have worked to ensure that each of their resort-wear garments are constructed to withstand the power of the ocean. Dawn’s experience in high-end fashion inspires her constant pursuit of the highest quality and luxurious fabrics out there.

Solid and Striped

Elevating your current wardrobe is no easy feat. However, it helps to have Solid and Striped at your disposal. From their classic ready-to-wear silhouettes to their bold and bright bikini lines, they are a good point of reference. Minimizing your outfit choices is always going to be a sacrifice when going on vacation so why not make it easier on yourself and pack garments which can endlessly be mixed and matched to create infinite choices? 

Keeping the designs timeless guarantees that everything will stand the test of time. Not only that, they also provide staple garments which are curated to elevate and reinvent the typical wardrobe in a subtle yet modern style.

Caroline Constas

No matter where your final destination is or what style you prefer, winning an unofficial best-dressed competition is always a great feeling.

They not only take into consideration refined elegance but comfortable style which is synonymous with the modern-day globetrotter.

Just because you’re going on vacation with limited wardrobe choices, doesn’t mean you need to sacrifice comfort and style. There are only so many ways to inherently embody ‘beachy and sunny’ whilst simultaneously being comfortable and ready for nature’s beauty. These brands won’t just help you to come up with new outfits for your next get-away but they will help you to worry less about the packing process and worry more about whether you want to sport stripes or polka-dots on your third beach visit of the day.
