THE PERFECT GREEK HOLIDAY OUTFITS FOR SANTORINI, MYKONOS & EVERYWHERE IN BETWEEN!
Whether it’s for the food, the restorative energy, or for the now-legendary party potential, a glorious week in Greece hits top of the list for thousands of UK holidaymakers every year.
Across its mainland, the Aegean and the Ionian islands, the mythical country offers a warm welcome to all of its visitors, some of the most stunning beaches ever seen, and mountain walks and hikes to rival the world’s best-known national parks. It also means that Greek holiday outfits, much like the nation itself, will prove varied and work best when tailored to your own taste and style.
Just don’t forget the swimsuits, bikinis and beachwear, because there is no way you’ll not want to dip in the beautiful blue sea!
We’ve taken two of the most dreamy destinations and curated Boux’s very own edit for gorgeous Greece. Are Santorini outfits for sunset cocktails what you need? Look no further. Or perhaps Mykonos looks and accessorising are on your mind?
Either way, tick the holiday packing off your checklist with our picks below…
WHAT TO WEAR IN GREECE?
We know, you’ve asked it already; what to wear in the country of tavernas?
Whether you’re headed to some of the best-known islands or to a hidden gem for a real holiday hideaway, we’ve got the day and night outfit answers ready.
Different islands mean different vibes - and you can rely on your trusted Boux crew to bring you the inspo for every excursion on your carefully-curated itinerary.
OUTFIT INSPO FOR SANTORINI
You’ve booked to go, so no doubt you’re ready for the vivacious vibes of Santorini and all that this sunkissed island has to offer.
As the most instagrammed island of Greece’s amazing archipelago, it’s only natural that you want to keep your outfits (and your out-out ‘fits) on point! So we’re whisking you off in style, with swimwear, beachwear, cocktail and dinner outfits for some mega va-cay slays.
We can’t help but go full on feisty with our first pick. After all, if you can’t go all out on holiday, when can you?! The Barbados chain cross swimsuit is a swimwear must-have, with a chic halter neck, gold chain detailing that’ll ensure your allure whether you’re strutting (or swimming) poolside or seaside. Pair with the Sheer beach trousers and immediately up the ante for golden hour cocktails and beach club feels.
An absolute beach babe at heart? You’ll have sorted your beach day bikini sets then, if you need more bikini inspo though check out our fave bikini trends now!
Dress to impress for your saunter towards the salt water and sea breeze, in the Broderie wrap top. Feminine frill sleeves combine so perfectly with a plunging neckline and premium broderie patterning, that you may just leave it on for your sunbathing sesh! Naturally, the matching Broderie wrap skirt needs to come away with you too. Tie the waistband for an effortless kind of pretty, and add a touch of slick with the Gold hex sunglasses. Timeless style, to a tee.
No one goes to Greece without enjoying a true Mediterranean feast, and Santorini is no exception. Whether it’s Michelin starred or a meal perched on the rocks with a vista, you’ll want to look and feel your best. Taverna time? Throw on the Dobby spot jumpsuit for effortless glam that will work for a casual dinner and late night cocktails too. Add the Ruched beach sliders instead of heels and stay casual-cool, and ready for a post-mezze promenade.
With a selection of stunning restaurants to choose from, some of them Michelin-starred to boot, sometimes a dressy evening outfit may be required. We love the Broderie frill dress in black. Frills and spaghetti straps? Always.
Accessorise for star appeal with the Nude angular sunglasses, and savour every moment of that sun-drenched spanakopita!
MYKONOS OUTFIT IDEAS YOU WILL LOVE
Exciting and effervescent, the Greek party island is also as charming and atmospheric as it gets with wondrous whitewashed alleyways and a stunning history. For this Southern European gem, we know you’ll want to switch between a few looks depending on what the day brings - and we’ve got it sussed.
Swim to your heart's content in the deep blue waters of Panormos beach - you’ll dive in with serious style, courtesy of our Baracoa ruched side swimsuit. A cross back makes a functional piece a little different, and it’s available in beautiful cobalt blue, green and a pink mix. Cover up afterwards with our super versatile Sheer sarong, and enjoy the ideal ‘fit for late lunch feasting or a sunset stroll…
And for days where lounging, sipping and strutting are higher on that holiday agenda, glam is the name of the game in the Strappy back knit beach dress.
Turn heads at one of Mykonos’ legendary beach clubs and exhibit your extra side (we know it’s there!) with the Gold disk belly chain too. It oozes sexy beach thrills whether worn peek-a-boo style under your dress, or as a dainty belt on top.
Mykonian meandering with bae top of your wanderlust wishlist?
Enjoy evening strolls and candlelit dinners against the quaint backdrop of old town Chora - just make sure you don’t fade into the background! Impossible when you’ve got Mykonos night outfit inspo like the Orlah longline bra. We know, it’s a bold one - pare down with a crisp white shirt and your faithful flats, or go all out with its sassiest partner in crime - the Mesh ruched maxi skirt. The bra’s a neon standout, whilst the skirt does understated sexy in classic black; together, they’ll make for an unforgettable evening…
From the Mesh ruched maxi skirt to the Mesh tie top, it’s an ensemble that pops in both black and orange. Ready to tango in the full works? We think you’ll agree that popping the Bora bora strappy triangle bikini set underneath makes for a killer club look. Textured fabric and strap detailing add a touch of luxe for the VIP lounge, whilst keeping the summery vibes flowing all night long.
The Cut out knit mini beach dress is a little gem we simply had to add to the list! The ultimate LBD for summer, she’s also there for you in pink, so grab both options for that sundown to sunrise transition! We just know you’ll rock a mini length, daring cutouts and back tie detail all week long on magical Mykonos.
