You see the collar first. Wide, white, squared across the back and falling rounded at the front, each one finished with a cloth patch of an embroidered navy anchor and a red lifebuoy. Under it the cotton is a warm mid grey, buttoned the full length of the front with small gilt centred buttons, and the short sleeves carry double white ribbon banding at the cuff. A self-fabric belt runs through loops at the waist and fastens with a scalloped gold tone buckle, and the shorts below fall in soft pleats.

Follow the nautical thread or ignore it completely. Add fun white leather sneakers and keep this an easy look. Flat sandals or espadrilles put another twist on this cute jumpsuit. One piece, one decision, and you are dressed.
