Tahiti magic
For STYLE Summer, join us as we explore Tahiti, meet the locals and shoot the season’s best fashion amongst the stunning island backdrop of Moorea.
The untouched white sands and turquoise waters provide the perfect location to get excited about dressing in summer dresses, easy separates and swimwear, all of which you’ll find in abundance inside the magazine. We also attend Tahiti Fashion Week and take in the designs and creative spirit of the area as well as share some of the looks that wowed (and their creators) and the must-visit spots that captured our hearts.
The islands of Tahiti provide a fabulously varied experience with its nature and culture, something Editor Michael McHugh touches upon in the issue.
“Tahiti is seductive, culturally rich and diverse, with a landscape that at times feels so emotionally charged as you walk amongst it, you aren’t quite sure where to look next – and the sunrises and sunsets are spectacular,” says Michael.
Summer’s best shopping
If you’re shopping for the season, you’ll want to peruse STYLE’s front-section, The Edit, first. As it sounds, it has our curated selection of the best pieces for this year’s high-season wardrobe. Think easy-breezy sundresses, the most-wanted sandals and bags, chic watches and feel good swimsuits.
There’s also interior news, restaurants to try and hip destinations worth sharing with friends.
Adventure and explore
A holiday vibe filters through our entire issue, including the design and interiors stories inside.
The idea is perfectly captured in the feature on a modern home in a mountainside suburb of Cape Town (that stars on our home cover) with a white-washed façade and seaside views that stretch away into the distance. Inside and out, the renovated home includes bold design statements in both sculptural and organic shapes.
In addition, tour jaw-droppingly stunning homes in other sun-drenched hot-spots from Lisbon to Ibiza, the Algarve, to Mexico, that round out pages you’ll want to pore over while taking in our own great local weather.
There’s also plenty of trend intel from interior experts to inform your approach for the coming year, from textural decor to clean and serene elements and eye-popping colour in design.
Glow and behold
Easy does it is the mantra for beauty this season. Find the best radiant multi-tasking skincare solutions that extend from head to toe, and uncontrived makeup that leaves you looking fresh and glowing in the beauty section.
In fashion Dior’s Cruise 2025 Collection dreams up by Maria Grazia Chiuri recalls an altogether cooler locale – Scotland – but there’s so much to love about the corsets, tartans and embroidery that will be influential in the coming year.
Lisbon travel guide
You’ll feel like you’ve walked the streets of Lisbon yourself after finishing up our Concierge section.
The capital of Portugal is increasingly capturing the attention of travellers for its historic roots, creative spirit and sensational food. We show off its new bars and eateries, shops and boutique hotels in restored buildings and picturesque streets that will have you quickly collating an itinerary to tick off.
STYLE Spring is available with two different covers, in all good book stores and supermarkets from December 9, and online at MiNDFOOD.com.
