Maya’s 3-Piece Capsule Formula
From day to sunset, this one-piece is a chameleon. At the beach, wear it solo with a wide-brimmed straw hat and flat slides. When the sun dips, layer a loose linen shirt—unbuttoned, sleeves rolled—over it, swap the slides for raffia mules, and add a long pendant necklace. The square neckline frames the jewelry perfectly, so keep it minimal but intentional.
For a late dinner, I’d tie a silk sarong at the hip or throw on a tailored waistcoat if you’re heading somewhere cooler. The high-cut leg means you can wear it with high-waisted trousers or a maxi skirt without bunching—just tuck the straps or let them hang for a relaxed vibe. Accessories should follow the neckline: a delicate chain or sculptural earrings, never both.
