Gingham clothes for pure summer feeling
Nothing calls for relaxed summer days and outdoor picnics like the classic gingham pattern. Whether on dresses, skirts, tops or trousers – the small checked pattern always looks great and is perfect for the warm season. In this post I’ll show you the most beautiful gingham pieces for summer and tell you how to style them.
Summer Feeling: Gingham Skirts

Skirts with Vichy patterns promise pure summer mood. They can be combined very well and in different ways depending on the weather. Whether with a blouse, top or cardigan – the outfits always looks great. Red and white gingham pieces look particularly summery and are perfect for everyday wear. Whether for a picnic or a visit to a café, you are always well dressed with a red and white gingham skirt in midi length. White tops and cardigans, cool cat-eye sunglasses, flat shoes and accessories such as a wide waist belt finish the look.
Outfit details: skirt: Lena Hoschek, similar e.g. by Son de Flor via Etsy*, black top: similar e.g. via TopVintage*, white top: similar e.g. via TopVintage*, hat: similar e.g. via Etsy*, sunglasses: similar e.g. via TopVintage*
Black and white gingham looks particularly classic and perhaps a bit more elegant than the more colorful options. Both white and black tops go wonderfully with these skirts. Add a few accessories such as straw hats, basket bags and large earrings and the summer outfit is perfect.

Classically beautiful like Brigitte Bardot: a gingham dress

Brigitte Bardot made the gingham pattern really en vogue again in the 50s and 60s. That’s why the dresses with the classic small check still remind us of vacation in St. Tropez. It doesn’t matter whether you choose a black and white or colorful dress. I like to wear relaxed, summery accessories with the gingham dress like a straw hat, a basket bag and some pretty earrings.

Trousers can also come in a cool gingham pattern! I particularly like to combine these in a 60s look, which creates a pure summer feeling.
