What to take on vacation – tips from Andre Tan
The stylist singled out essential items to keep you from worrying about what to wear during your vacation.
Basic T-shirt
"It should be slightly loose, made of dense cotton, not see-through or looking 'homey.' A classic you simply can’t do without!" Tan explained.

Oversize shirt
This is a true must-have. Andre recommends choosing quality fabrics that will definitely keep you comfortable in the heat.
"Linen or viscose, calm colors. You can wear it as a dress, throw it over your shoulders, or tie it at the waist. There you have three options in one!" the designer emphasized.

Shorts or skirt
It’s hard to imagine a summer "capsule" without these. These items are a must-have in your wardrobe.
"Only natural fabric and focus on the waist. During the day with a T-shirt, in the evening – with a shirt and accessories. Comfortable and stylish!" Tan highlighted.

Basic dress – midi with thin straps
A universal summer item that can be easily combined with other clothing. A real find for a capsule wardrobe.
"With a shirt – a casual look, with heels and accessories – an evening one. This is when one item replaces several," the stylist wrote.
