Elsa Hosk’s European Summer Outfits Rely on Just 5 Chic Items

Kicking off her summer holidays earlier than the rest, model Elsa Hosk has embarked upon a European summer trip, making stop offs on the Italian coast and the English countryside over the past few weeks. In tandem? A suitcase or two topped up with new-season buys and enduring designer heroes that have me rethinking my entire holiday wardrobe.

In preparation for the first leg of her trip to sunny Sicily, Hosk spent some time curating the perfect packing list. Ticking off voluminous skirts, lightweight layers, striking accessories, and dreamy dresses, the model’s trip to the Italian coat was a guaranteed success from the moment she zipped up her suitcase. Across her very best looks we spotted five major summer trends that Hosk relied heavily on during her time away. Read on to discover the trends she couldn’t stop wearing.

2. RETRO ACCESSORIES

Style Notes: Departing the Italian shore for the greener pastures, Hosk’s second leg of her summer holiday involved a trip to the Great British countryside. Dressing aptly for that past weekend’s brief spell of heat, Hosk enjoyed the sun in retro accessories including oversized shades and a chic head scarf. Accessorising with a cup of tea, the model’s country-side style perfectly matched the picturesque setting.

3. PUFF SLEEVE BLOUSE

Style Notes: Whilst I’m more used to seeing Hosk in a jaw-dropping red carpet gown, her off-duty sea-side looks have reminded me that her sense of style is supreme—no matter the setting. Settled onto a yacht for a day skirting the coast, Hosk styled a puff-sleeve blouse in a bright white shade that she wore underneath dark beige Miu Miu overalls. Retaining a playful yet polished look, the model’s casual summer outfit prioritised comfort in the chicest of ways.

4. WHITE DRESSES

Style Notes: For casual, beach-side days the model reached for an elegant white dress with a disctinct drop-waist design. Whilst the pretty dress looks chic on the Italian shore, the classic design will fair an elegant evening meal with just as much grace.

5. WIDE LEG TROUSERS

Style Notes: Before heading home, the model took to the British country side in a fresh, summer-ready look. Styling a flowing white spaghetti-strap top, Hosk paired her look with comfortable wide-leg jeans that puddled around her ankle.
