A Summer Palette

We are thrilled to report that the sun is out, the sleeves are off, and the hems are short! Now that we’re deep into June, we can breathe a summer sigh of relief. We can finally wear our favorite styles from our new summer collection. With a calendar full of days under the sun and by the water, we’re diving into the inspiration behind and ways to wear these summer styles ☀️.

KULE mood board for June summer collection

The summer palette features blush pinks, dusty blues, and natural tones. When designing the summer drop, Nikki looked at raffia, wicker, and soft flower petals. She picked fresh colors that look great with the ocean, inspired by summer travels.

KULE June ribbed cropped Eleni tank
That perfect ribbed tank, The Eleni, will be a summer game-changer. This newest silhouette is slightly cropped with a finer rib and piped finishing, available in white and heather grey. It’s a summer must-have and pairs well with a cocktail.

Nikki always looks to art as an inspiration when designing. The colors of this Claire Tabouret painting were a starting point, while the stripes in Chantal Joffe’s set the mood for this summer collection.

Nikki also draws inspiration from photography of scenery and design around the world. Aren’t these places you’d like to be this summer?
