What to Wear on Holiday: Resort Wear That Travels From Beach to Bar
Holiday style should be simple. You want pieces that pack light, look polished, and carry you effortlessly from slow mornings by the pool to cocktails as the sun sets. For many women, the challenge lies in finding resort wear that is stylish, comfortable, and size-inclusive. Too often, holiday outfits are either overly trend-led or impractical for real-life bodies.
At Bohemian Traders, we design resort wear with every woman in mind. Using natural fibres, inclusive sizing (6–22), and silhouettes that balance ease with elegance. Our latest collection, The Golden Hour Club, captures the essence of summer dressing: artful prints, versatile separates, and timeless pieces that move with you wherever your holiday takes you.
What is Resort Wear and Why Does it Matter?
Resort wear is more than just clothing for a trip. It’s about having a wardrobe that transitions seamlessly from casual holiday moments to evening occasions. The best resort wear pieces:
- Are made from natural, breathable fabrics like linen and cotton.
- Offer mix-and-match versatility so you can pack fewer, better items.
- Are available in inclusive sizes, ensuring every woman feels represented.
The Key Holiday Outfits Every Wardrobe Needs
Linen Sets That Work From Day to Night
Few things travel as well as a linen set. Our terracotta and striped co-ords double as pool cover-ups by day and polished dinner looks by night. Pair with sandals in the afternoon, add earrings and slides for evening.
Swimwear That Goes Beyond the Pool
Your swimwear should work harder than a single dip. Our swim separates and coordinating sarongs create elevated, effortless beach-to-bar outfits — so you never feel underdressed ordering a spritz by the water.
Printed Dresses That Make the Holiday
A statement dress is the ultimate holiday shortcut. The Calm Palm Capsule brings fine-art inspired prints to easy-to-wear silhouettes, while flowing maxis double as both holiday outfits and event-ready staples.
Plus Size Resort Wear That Doesn’t Compromise on Style
Too often, plus-size resort wear is an afterthought. At Bohemian Traders, style doesn’t stop at a size. Every print, cut, and fabric is available in sizes 6–22, designed with real fit models to ensure flattering, comfortable silhouettes.
Building a Holiday Capsule Wardrobe
When it comes to packing, less is more. A capsule of 6–8 versatile pieces can cover your entire trip:
- Linen set in a statement colour like a rusty red that can mix & match throughout your trip.
- Statement maxi dress that can be dressed up or down.
- Printed tee for layering and wearing with denim shorts or relaxed trousers. Bonus points if it can be worn back with your rusty red set!
- Swim + sarong for ocean swims that turn into late lunches.
- Red gingham set for festive occasions.
- Light cotton lace pieces that can be layered, dressed up for down and mix & match with your other pieces.
- Easy slides and accessories like a staple leather bag and wide brim hat.
