The White Lotus Is Back – And With It, A Whole Host Of Brilliant Outfits That You Can Shop Now

After a three year wait, The White Lotus is officially open once again. The third instalment of the razor-sharp satire is finally here; and while the brilliant new cast has traded in sunny Sicily for the beaches of Koh Samui and we're all collectively mourning the loss of Jennifer Coolidge's brilliantly deranged Tanya, not everything has changed in the world of the uber-luxury on-screen resort. For one, Mike White's take on the deluded 1% and their twisted dynamics remains as chaotic and witty as ever, as do the impeccable costumes.

Alex Bovaird, the show's costume designer, was once again tasked with displaying how the ridiculously wealthy holiday, delivering an array of sequin dresses, vibrant kaftans and crocheted beach cover-ups. For season 3, the cast of characters includes the Ratliff family – financier father Timothy (Jason Isaacs), his wife Victoria (Parker Posey), and their three children – 40-something friend trio Jaclyn (Michelle Monaghan), Kate, and Laurie (Carrie Coon), free-spirited Chelsea (Aimee Lou Wood) with her rakish partner Rick (Walton Goggins), staff member and health mentor Mook and Belinda, who you'll recognise from the first season.

With a familiar combination of characters and dysfunctional personalities, an entertaining plot is guaranteed to unfold over the next few weeks. But from the moment the trailer dropped peppered with glimpses of floaty Zimmermann dresses, floral Alemais prints, preppy gems from Ralph Lauren and even a sequinned Valentino moment, we knew the fashion would be just as brilliant, and just as likely to lead our summer style mood boards as its predecessors did.

In keeping with the theme of the show, much of the fashion on display is inaccessible to everyone but the 1%. But as with Sydney Sweeney's ironic sweatshirts in season 1 and Aubrey Plaza's quiet luxury-leaning wardrobe from season 2 prove, there's plenty of wearable trends to be found amongst the designer gems on The White Lotus. In fact, the tropical vibe is so wearable that H&M has designed a collection in collaboration with Bovaird, dropping on 20th February.

As we await the inevitable unravelling of each character and their lives in the coming weeks, we're also taking notes on the outfits they're wearing and finding the best high street alternatives. Whether you're getting a head start on spring shopping or packing your bags for a sunny break, keep scrolling to shop the best outfits from The White Lotus season 3 below.

Episode 1 Outfits

Victoria's Khaki Dress

Victoria Ratliff's wardrbe is a masterclass in elegant basics. Case in point, the Banana Republic linen dress she elevates with a monogrammed silk scarf from Swaine London and a Gucci 1947 bamboo top-handle bag. You'll find that this understated khaki dress from Whistles is remarkably similar and will prove to be a versatile addition to your wardrobe.

Laurie's Printed Summer Dress

Zimmermann's floaty dresses are practically synonymous with summer dressing, so it's hardly a surprise that the brand makes multiple appearances through the show. The exact Alight Midi Dress sported by Carrie Coon as she arrives at The White Lotus is now sold out, but it proves that you can never go wrong with a vibrant printed midi.

Chelsea's Crochet Dress

While donning a crocheted mini dress might seem like a distant dream now as we're still swaddled in layers of cashmere, warmer days are approaching, albeit at a glacial pace. Aimee Lou Wood's dress is from My Beachy Side and costs about £350, but for those of us not jetting off to incredibly luxurious resorts, you'll find Anthropologie offers a similar vibe at about a third of the cost. Wood's character accessorises the dress with the Stay Gold pendant, £7,635 from Luna Flo London but you could get the same look for much less at Monica Vinader.

Lochlan's Camp Collar Shirt

Camp collar shirts are to menswear what linen dresses are to womenswear: a warm weather holy grail. Lochlan's breezy reptile and floral print shirt is definitely one worth borrowing from the boys. The exact shirt is by New York-based brand Tombolo, but Lacoste's preppy green iteration is just as striking at half the price.

Piper's Lace Dress

Perfectly breezy and relaxed, everyone has a few iterations of a lacy cotton dress in their wardrobes. In the first episode, Piper wears a lace-trimmed dress from Polo Ralph Lauren and while we wait for it to be restocked, the high street has a few great alternatives. Take your styling cues from the show and pair your dress with boho-chic wedge heels.

Chelsea's Red Bikini

For the quintessential pool-side scenes at The White Lotus, there were swimsuits aplenty, but Chelsea's ruffled bikini is what caught our eye immediately. While hers is made to order from luxury swimwear label Tara Matthews, we're eyeing the much more affordable ruffled design from Mint Velvet for our holidays this summer. Round out the fiery look with a pair of leopard print sunglasses.

Kate's Pink Swimsuit

If you're partial to one-piece swimsuits over skimpy bikinis, look to Kate's plunging Valentino style paired with a monochrome patterned sarong.
