With a few more weeks of summer left (let’s not forget, the last official day is September 22!), end-of-season vacations are top of mind, especially as we near Labor Day weekend. If you’re looking for a little inspiration on what to pack and wear, let these celebrity vacation outfits guide the way. Whether you’re packing for seaside escapes or urban adventures, these looks offer plenty of fresh ideas for making the most of the final weeks of summer.
Vogue’s Favorite Celeb-Inspired Vacation Pieces:
If a Mediterranean destination—or any beach getaway, for that matter—is calling, look to playful prints for your next vacation look. Whether you take cues from supermodel Vittoria Ceretti’s bold, bright cabana stripes or Laura Harrier’s polka-dot prints in Saint-Tropez, leaning into retro patterns is an easy way to give your holiday wardrobe a timeless, nostalgic feel.
You can also go the summer-in-the-city route, like Gigi Hadid, who wore a white tank top and lace-trimmed slip skirt while dining out in Paris. With black flip-flops and a polka-dot shoulder bag, it’s a lesson in how a few well-chosen accessories can make even the simplest outfit feel vacation-ready.
Or you can opt for one-and-done dresses, the ultimate summer wardrobe workhorses. While roaming the streets of the Eternal City, Jennifer Lopez made the case for the white eyelet dress—a classic choice for sightseeing and strolling, or even as a cover-up. Meanwhile, Rihanna kept things simple with a black maxidress as her focal piece for a boat day with family. Styled over a beaded bikini and accessorized with flip-flops and oversized sunnies, it’s a no-fail formula for looking pulled together while getting a little R&R.
Wherever you’re headed, consider these foolproof combinations. Ahead, the best celebrity vacation outfits to inspire the final summer getaways of the season.
Riviera Romance
In between sunbathing and long lunches, supermodel Vittoria Ceretti chose cabana stripes for seaside moments in the French Riviera. Get the look with a similar set that can take you from the beach to post-dip shopping strolls in a flash. Finish things off with black flip-flops, a raffia tote, and shield sunglasses—accessories that the supermodel regularly gravitates toward.
Spotted!
Laura Harrier leaned into the polka-dot trend with a French-girl twist while on holiday in Saint-Tropez. The actor paired a print slip skirt with a navy crewneck baby T-shirt, Alaïa mesh flats, and a woven bag from The Row for a minimalist take on vacation dressing. As a final nod to the Mediterranean aesthetic, don’t forget the bandana kerchief! It’s another hot accessory in the celeb circuit this summer.
Une Américaine à Paris
Gigi Hadid has touched down in the City of Light a few times this summer, making her a seasoned source for reliable outfits. For a similar dinner-date look, pair a white tank top and black lace-trimmed slip skirt with leather flip-flops and Valentino’s polka-dot shoulder bag. It’s equal parts polished and practical for navigating any urban environment, whether Paris or beyond.
Setting Sail
Whether or not your end-of-summer plans mean yachting around the South of France, follow Bella Hadid’s lead with Dôen’s lace-trimmed shorts set in butter yellow. The key to balancing the delicate detailing is pairing it with classic accessories, which keeps the romantic mood from veering too precious. A woven basket bag, leather flip-flops, and oversized shades highlight the relaxed, on-holiday feel.
Decked Out
For a day at sea with her family, Rihanna chose a black maxidress as the focal point of her outfit—simple and elegant yet still making a statement. She layered the caftan over a beaded bikini, adding flip-flops, oversized sunglasses, and gold jewelry as her final touches. The result is a master class in understated glamour that transitions seamlessly from deck to dinner.
Roman Holiday
Jennifer Lopez was spotted in the Eternal City in a winning vacation look worth re-creating for any destination, not just strolling the ancient sampietrini of Rome. A white eyelet minidress is the type of throw-on-and-go piece no carry-on should be without, while metallic flip-flops, an oversized straw bag, and a silk kerchief bring a distinctly Mediterranean feel. Che bella!
Beach-Club Blooms
Vacation outfitting means you can have a little more fun—just look to Victoria Beckham, who traded her usual tailored silhouettes for floaty florals while on a family vacation in Ibiza. The designer styled a printed maxidress with Loro Piana’s woven basket bag, adding signature oversized shades and personal jewelry to round out the beach-to-street aesthetic. This one’s worth packing!
