Summer Fashion 2022: A Guide to Styling Silk for Summer

Get ready to embrace long days, warm weather, and plenty of sunshine ahead with these must-have silk pieces from our summer 2022 collection. Inspired by the runway while incorporating classic styles and swoon-worthy silhouettes, we’ve got you covered with silk for every occasion under the sun.

Embrace summertime romance

We love a timeless summer romance, and our Ajuga Silk Twill Blouse 9851 is the ideal companion. Fall in love with a subtly smocked front collar and delicate puffed sleeves. Even more unforgettable? An ultra-chic tie back flows behind you as you move, and adds a touch of glam that feels fresh. Available in a variety of colors, we love this blouse in bright blue for a vibrant pop of color in your closet.

Finishing up work in the office before a long weekend? Pair this blouse with silk skirts or tailored trousers for a fashionable ensemble. Reserving a coastal beach house for the summer? Coordinate with tailored denim (we love a white jean) and your favorite matching sandals, wedges, or slides for a casual-yet-classy daytime look.

Bring the heat in a body-contouring silk camisole

A closet staple for every wardrobe, our Achillea Silk Knit Cami 8297 is a refreshing update to the quintessential cami with a modern twist. The shirring detail has you ready for sultry summer date nights, while delicate spaghetti straps show off your shoulders. A body-contouring fit embraces your silhouette, while 100% silk circular knitting keeps you cool even on the hottest summer days.

A quality silk cami can be paired with almost any outfit under the sun, but we certainly have our favorite ways to style Achillea for the summer season. A statement skirt and strappy heels are perfect for a summertime soiree or graduation party. Road trip in your summer itinerary? Take a joy ride and pair with vintage denim and sneakers, and add summer-approved accessories like a bucket hat, silk scarf, or retro sunglasses. Headed back to the office? Slip this cami under a blazer and pair with silk pants for a polished outfit that transitions perfectly from afternoon meetings to sunset happy hour in the city.

A silk pant for every occasion under the sun

Looking for an unexpected summertime wardrobe update? Our Nerium Silk Satin Pants 9852 are a fun, flattering, and functional balloon pant, perfect for hitting ‘refresh’ on your summertime rotation of sundresses and skirts. The pleated design adds movement, while hidden zippered pockets are perfect for storing on-the-go summertime essentials.

Keep the look smart with a tailored blouse and strappy heels for a colorful workleisure look that stands out from a sea of neutrals, or take it up a notch with heels and an eye-catching clutch for a summer evening ensemble. Prefer to relax at home? The softness of these silk pants is lounge lover’s dream, perfect for enjoying a quiet morning coffee on your patio.

A statement skirt for the season

When making a statement, sometimes less really is more. The simple sophistication of the Prunus Split Midi Skirt 9848 elevates a workwear staple (cue, the classic pencil skirt) into a ’90s-inspired cool-girl essential that’s refreshingly contemporary. Since summer is all about easy to wear ensembles, this skirt is equipped with a side split for playfulness and breathability. Bonus? The fabric is silk chiffon, for added luster in the sun.

To keep the look modern, we envision this skirt styled with block heel sandals or sneakers, a classic tee, and contemporary sunglasses for a Sunday morning at the farmer’s market. Or style with a slightly undone button down for a casual daytime date with your beau or trendy café with friends.

Consciously created for you

At LILYSILK, we believe in practicing slower fashion by designing quality pieces that can by styled into diverse looks and worn frequently, season after season. Our collections are limited, meaning we only make as many items as we can sell. As part of our commitment to move toward zero waste, we transform our unused fabric into beautiful silk accessories such as eye masks, scarves, and scrunchies, so you can look good in your LILYSILK pieces, and feel good about wearing them, too.
