Ellie Kai hit the nail on the head with the Tracey Dress, the most perfect maxi for the season - it's made of stretchy spandex blend that wears just like a bathing suit - think: super cooling and quintessentially Summer! The fabric - a unique choice for dresses, especially a breezy silhouette like this one - is what makes this piece, and many other pieces in the Summer collection, so completely versatile! The length and cut can easily translate as formal cocktail attire, but are right at home on the beach, making this the perfect suitcase essential for traveling. It's wrinkle resistant, and will take you from a day at the beach to an afternoon exploring markets, museums, and restaurants - with no need for a pit stop at the hotel to change!
Oh, and did I mention it's available in a whopping 31 colors and prints, all custom made to order? It's a pretty safe bet that while lately everyone is stocking up on Ellie Kai, you won't show up at a BBQ wearing exactly the same thing as someone else.
Ellie Kai Tracey Dress; NM tote; Vintage necklace; F21 cuffThe line was launched last spring by Liz Hostetter, a Cape Cod native who now lives in Hong Kong. Who better to outfit us in beachy separates and dresses that cater to a world traveller?
The current collection is centered around #MadeForYou dresses, skirts and tops in crepe de Chine silk, wovens, and jersey, and the color concept this season is inspired by Asia. You can shop online at Ellie Kai, or host a trunk show at your house.
Personally, I can't wait to wear my own Ellie Kai dress in Cape Cod - and beyond - this summer!
Cheers,
Renata
