The H&M x The White Lotus resortwear collection, which launches on February 20, features luxe floral, lace, and crochet styles designed to transport you to a tropical vacation in Thailand. Bovaird explains: “I could put these clothes on those characters in the show if I wanted to.” The goal was to create styles that seamlessly transition from day to night or can be thrown on after a long beach day. The 33-piece range includes matching sets, swimwear and coverups, and tons of easy-breezy accessories.
“I think the accessories are really amazing. I love the sandals, the beaded necklace, and the beach bag — it has a little pouch attached to it, so you can put your keys and credit card in there,” Bovaird says. She also shares her favorite apparel from the collection, noting that while the pieces are suitcase-ready, they’re also easy to mix into your wardrobe before summer arrives. “I like the frill trousers with the oversized shirt in the black and green print. That’s something I definitely would wear and go to work in.” She also predicts the flouncy black mini dress will be a customer favorite.
Touching on more character-inspired pieces, Bovaird highlights the “sexy, sultry beachwear” influenced by Chloe (Charlotte Le Bon) and a mix of long dresses and coverups “a little bit more like Sex and the City,” inspired by the season’s trio of friends: Jaclyn (Michelle Monaghan), Kate (Leslie Bibb), and Laurie (Carrie Coon). There’s even an ode to the late Tanya McQuoid (famously played by Jennifer Coolidge) via a pink and purple kaftan.
