8 Ways to Style Your Sarong for Any Summer Occasion
When styled correctly, sarongs are the new skirts. Sarongs are often worn as beach covers over swimwear. However, we think that they can also add a touch of elegance to your favorite summer looks. The sarong can be worn in the city or on nights out. Are you ready to give this item a truly innovative, trend-forward spin? Here are eight different ways to wear a sarong to enhance your summer style.
Summer Indie Sleaze

Monochrome looks are a great way to stay on trend, even if you’re just lounging around the pool. This all-black Good American ensemble will keep you stylish and on-trend as you enjoy the summer sun. With a trendy woven tote, you can carry all the essentials for a seaside party girl.

Keep It Classy

As a Dress

Try wearing your sarong as a dress rather than a skirt if you want to try something new. This gorgeous hand-printed, sarong is perfect for going from the beach to dinner. Slick your hair to give it a polished look.
Less is More
Revolve / Oseree / Shopbop
This trend for micro mini skirts is still strong. A smaller sarong would be a great way to try it out, since you could wear it at the pool or on the beach. Kulani Kinis’ style is perfect for a sparkling swimsuit.
Crochet Chic
Revolve / Jade Swim
Crochet is the material to have this season. Choose a crocheted maxi skirt, like this one from Beach Riot, for a look that is both fashionable and functional. Combine it with a crochet top that isn’t the same color as your skirt for extra coverage.
Structure play
Eric Javits / Maisonette / Favorite Daughter
You can’t decide if you want to embody a siren-like aesthetic for the office or a carefree summer vibe. Combine a sarong in a bright color with a structured jacket to embrace both. Add a dramatic sunhat to the look for a striking finish.
