7 Suitcase Essentials: What To Pack For San Sebastián

Remember our piece on San Sebastián? Well this week, we’d like to show you how to wear our exclusive collection on your next holiday, especially if you’re visiting the scenic Basque Country.

With the British weather warming up (slightly) and the middle of March in sight, you’d be forgiven of dreaming of long sunny evenings, sea breezes and exotic foods. Yes, we too have our hearts set on a holiday – who doesn’t?

Luckily for you and your suitcase, our talented stylists have done your packing for you…well, almost. We’ve created a video of our favourite looks from the new collection and how to wear them. And of course, the ideal destination for these outfits is the Basque Country, but we won’t be too strict on where to wear them! So, if you love bold coastal prints and our Spanish-inspired designs then keep scrolling…

First Class Florals

A transitional favourite that never loses its style, our floral jumpsuit is a certified holiday must-have. With a blend of vivid shades all over, you’ll be sure to look the part. Due to San Sebastián’s cool climate, we’ve teamed the jumpsuit with a knitted cardigan and a rucksack to add a pop of colour.

Just In Case Jumper

As we’ve mentioned, the weather is a little temperamental in the Basque Country. So, to avoid getting goosebumps, perhaps pack some knitwear. With a stripe print that imitates the coastal cottages and beautifully blue sea, this lightweight jumper has quirky embroidery that will make you stand out and emulate the scenery. Pair your look with flared trousers and a camera for snapping some shots.

Practical Pony Print

For the days where you want to lounge about town, opt for this tunic dress. As you know, we love putting unexpected twists into our work, which is why our pony print is one to be cherished and remembered. Inspired by the wild horses found in the Northern Spanish countryside, ensure you pack a lightweight jacket in your rucksack for when the sun sets. After all, there’s nothing like a sea breeze.

Seaside Spots

One of our favourite pieces of the season; our retro spotted dress can be worn from the beach to the bars. Perfect for sampling local cuisine in, team with vibrant shoes and a sun hat.

If you visit San Sebastián,  get your taste buds tingling with some pinxtos. Or, if you’re not into tapas, why not give seafood a go? Oh, and make sure you’re wearing the dress, too.

Reservations For San Sebastián

Considering the vibrancy of San Sebastián’s nightlife, we believe a dinner dress is a must. Falling above the knee, our floral dress is the perfect match for wining and dining. Partnered with a pair of classy heels, be sure to drop into one of the most buzzing places in town: Le Bukowski.

Native Nature Pattern

Moreover, San Sebastián is well-known for its colours and natural beauty. Thus, taking inspiration from the exotic flowers grown in the Alderdi Eder Park, our prom dress is another option for evening events. Designed in mid-length shape, this formal dress has been chosen because of its unique array of florals. So, make sure you take it somewhere special!

Fiesta Frock

A passion for art…decadent architecture…a love of the finer things in life – these are the things Northern Spain is famed for, so you’ll need a dress to take to the extensive galleries and museums. Boasting a quirky design that displays all things Spanish, our wrap dress is suited for strolling around exhibitions and exposing your love of peculiar prints.

P.S. Don’t forget to stop at the San Telmo Museum – it’s a tourist favourite!
