Sun-soaked resort dressing with effortless elegance
There is a quiet escapism woven through the latest collection from Meshki. Titled Elsewhere, and fronted by Tina Kunakey, the campaign captures a slower, more intentional rhythm. Not a destination, but a feeling. One that lingers somewhere between salt air, sun-warmed skin and the gentle stretch of an unhurried afternoon.
The collection unfolds as a considered resort wardrobe, where texture and fabrication take centre stage. Crocheted gowns and separates are a clear highlight, intricate yet effortless, alongside tactile cotton dresses and fluid skirts that move with an easy elegance. There is a strong interplay between opacity and sheerness, with delicate lacework, semi-transparent panels and fine knit structures creating depth without heaviness.
Colour begins softly, grounded in an abundance of white, before opening into a nuanced spectrum. Ombre pieces stand out in particular, shifting seamlessly through tones of peach, lemon and blush, while baby blue crochet and airy light blue dresses offer a sense of calm. Richer notes of red and elevated black bring contrast, while otherworldly prints introduce a more expressive, almost dreamlike dimension.
Silhouettes move between relaxed and refined. There are dresses designed to be thrown over swimwear, as well as pieces that transition effortlessly into evening with the addition of a heel. Separates feel equally considered, with placement prints, shell embellishments, lacing details and fine strap work adding a sense of craft throughout. Playsuits and lighter summer pieces sit alongside more polished evening options, creating a wardrobe that feels both versatile and intentional.
Fabrication is where the collection truly resonates. Cotton, linen, lace, crochet, silk and satin are layered thoughtfully, offering a tactile richness that mirrors the mood of the campaign. The swimwear is equally strong, with a confident mix of bikinis and full coverage styles in both vibrant colourways and refined prints.
Elsewhere feels nostalgic without being literal. A modern take on holiday dressing that moves easily from beach to bar, and on to long dinners by the water. Effortless, sun-soaked, and quietly elevated.
