Summer Is On The Horizon And So Is Free People’s New Collection

As we know, summer in the UK can be very temperamental. Of course, we'd like to think that a floaty dress and a thin cardi is all we will need, but in reality, our summer wardrobe has to be better equipped than that. So, to shop a collection that provides versatile pieces for weather conditions other than sunshine, is just what we need right now.

Free People is one of the few brands championing the seasonless style movement, being mindful of reducing fast-fashion, and shouting about clothes that should be treasured for years to come. Just up our street, and the streets of très chic fans like, Lucy Williams, Sabina Socal and celebrity stylist, Angie Smith.

Loved for its feminine yet modern dresses, Free People's new collection holds an array of forever-stylish and practical pieces across denim, knitwear and accessories. Take these flare jeans for example, layer them under this crochet knit dress for those chillier days, or add a heel and classic jewellery for a summer evening look.

This collection, as well as the brands' persona, carries a subtle hint of the seventies, the era in which Free People was born. Balloon and bell sleeve tops, ditsy and blooming floral prints, and floaty silhouettes – all artistically featured within modern designs. This, and the use of premium fabrics, means every Free People piece is timeless.

Recently, Free People have been using its fabrics to create quality masks, for fellow team members and heath care workers. Follow the simple tutorial to make your own here. Plus, if you're a NHS/key worker, check out the Free People Instagram page every Thursday for weekly giveaways.

In these times, the brand has seen UK customers diving deeper in to the breadth of their online collections, especially their activewear – FP Movement, and intimates. We can understand why, it's hard to avoid the temptation of buying a whole new wardrobe at this rate... But why buy one, when you could win one?
