Coastal style

Linen shirts, cotton knitwear, and relaxed trousers in cream, sand, and navy for easy coastal dressing across women and men.

Coastal style is a relaxed way of dressing built around airy natural fabrics, loose tailoring, and muted shoreline tones suited for warm seaside weather. Generous wide leg trousers, lightweight shirts, and chunky knits pair breathable linen with soft cotton to keep the body cool. Washed shades of sand, blue, cream, and white hold the wardrobe together through simple tonal harmony.

The coastal grandmother trend of the early twenty twenties, named on TikTok, took its cream knits and linen from the seaside homes in Nancy Meyers films. Sunspel, an English maker, brings the light cotton polos and tees here, and Les Deux, from Copenhagen, linen overshirts. Athoa makes linen shirts, pants and Bermuda shorts.

Essential pieces include airy button down shirts, pleated wide leg pants, textured knitwear, and tailored shorts worn with flat leather sandals or canvas totes. Due West, WDLT117 and Utopia in Toronto carry unlined jackets, crisp t shirts and relaxed trousers for women and men.

Common questions

What fabrics define coastal style?
Linen and cotton form the foundation of this aesthetic because their open weave allows heat to escape near the water. Silk and light canvas add subtle texture without adding bulk to warm weather outfits.
How do you wear coastal style in the city?
Pair relaxed linen button down shirts with structured pleated trousers rather than shorts to keep proportions sharp. Ground the outfit with clean leather sandals or canvas loafers in neutral sand or navy tones.
Which designers make pieces for coastal style?
Sunspel makes light cotton polos and tees, and Les Deux linen overshirts. Athoa makes linen shirts, pants and Bermuda shorts.
