Georgina Downe styles the best-dressed individuals on Instagram — Discover her top four summer trends to shop.
Georgina Downe understands precisely what elements make an outfit stand out and capture attention. The celebrity stylist, based in London, has devoted the past ten years to curating wardrobes for some of the most followed figures in fashion, including Sofia Richie Grainge, Kelsey Merritt, Pia Mance, and Rebecca Donaldson. She creates polished, effortlessly stylish looks that are prevalent both on Instagram and red carpets. After studying at the London College of Fashion and refining her skills by assisting top celebrity stylists in London, Los Angeles, and Sydney, Downe has established an aesthetic she terms "modern and elevated." Instead of enforcing a universal style formula, she prefers to "collaborate with each client to discover their unique style," ensuring that every outfit feels genuine—from travel outfits to red carpet ensembles—while enhancing "their overall personal brand." As fashion evolves, moving away from the trend of quiet luxury, Downe observes that the most engaging wardrobes are now celebrating individuality once more. "We leaned too heavily into the quiet luxury trend, making everything very repetitive," she notes. Instead, she advocates for "injecting personality or a touch of edge into your outfits," whether that’s through sculptural accessories, interesting textures, or standout pieces that elevate classic staples. Below, the celebrity stylist shares her predictions for summer 2026 trends, including crisp all-white attire, woven bags, beaded necklaces, and wedge sandals that are expected to shape the season.
**Summer Whites**
"I adore all-white tonal outfits for summer. They convey intentionality and chicness without overthinking it. This Beare Park skirt is a fantastic summer addition. Pair it with a simple white bikini by the pool, or dress it up for dinner with kitten heels and a white tank top." —Downe

**Beaded Necklaces**
"I noticed this trend starting to emerge earlier this year, and now it’s everywhere. It’s a fun summer trend that doesn’t require a major commitment to your seasonal wardrobe. Toteme has crafted a lovely and simple beaded necklace, and I recently saw some exciting new necklaces at the Charlotte Heinrich trunk show that deviate from their usual fine jewelry aesthetic. I’d recommend keeping it straightforward with this trend - pair it with a plain maxi dress or layer it with silk pants and a tank." —Downe

Opting for natural materials for handbags, like this The Row bag that's been popular this summer, is a perfect way to update your seasonal wardrobe." —Downe
