Shop Elan’s Women's Resort Collection for effortless women’s resort wear and vacation outfits designed for beach vacations, tropical getaways, cruises, and warm-weather escapes. Whether you’re packing for a beach trip, island getaway, honeymoon, poolside retreat, or summer vacation, our women’s vacation clothes combine comfort, elevated style, and easy-to-wear silhouettes.
What to look for in resort wear - Good resort clothing earns its space in a carry-on. The pieces worth packing do more than one job: a cover-up that reads as a dress with sandals, pants that work over a swimsuit and at a sunset dinner, and a kaftan you can throw on over anything. Elan’s women's resort wear is designed around that logic, with lightweight cotton and open crochet knit styles made for warm days and easy packing.
Resort dresses - Resort dresses are the fastest way to get dressed on vacation. Maxi and midi silhouettes with tiered skirts, smocked bodices and adjustable straps move easily from beach club to dinner, while shorter styles in prints and eyelet work for daytime. Look for halter necklines, lace detailing and lined styles if you want something that goes straight from the pool to a table without a change.
Cover-ups and beach layers - Crochet midi dresses, wrap cover-ups and sarong skirts layer over swim without hiding it. These are the pieces that make a swimsuit feel like an outfit, so they belong near the top of the packing list. Browse the full cover-ups collection for the complete range.
Matching sets and separates - Coordinated tops and pants give you a put-together look with one decision. Worn together, they read as a set; split apart, they double your outfits for the week. Crochet knits and printed cotton all work the same way. See more in matching sets.
Explore resort wear built around easy layering pieces and vacation essentials you’ll reach for season after season, from beach days to cruise dinners.
Frequently asked questions
What is resort casual?
Resort casual is a relaxed but put-together dress code for warm-weather destinations, sitting between beachwear and formal evening wear. Think a maxi dress, a matching top and pants set, or a crochet cover-up styled with sandals. Add wedges and gold jewelry for dinner, or keep it simple with flat sandals and a woven tote by day.
What should I wear on a cruise?
Build your cruise wear for women around pieces that work from deck to dinner. Sarong skirts and cover-ups handle pool days, while maxi dresses and matching sets carry you through the evening with a change of accessories. Choose styles that mix and match so a few pieces become many outfits, then add heels or wedges for dining nights.
What is resort wear?
Resort wear is clothing designed for vacations and warm-weather travel, from beach cover-ups to dresses you can wear straight to dinner. It is easy, lightweight and made to be styled more than one way. Elan’s resort wear for women includes crochet pieces, maxi dresses, sarong skirts and matching sets that you can pack once and wear several ways.
What should I pack for a beach vacation?
Pack a few pieces that do double duty. Start with a cover-up or sarong skirt for the beach, a maxi dress for dinner, and a matching top and pants set you can wear together or split apart. Add one or two easy pull-on styles for travel days and your swimsuits, and you have a week of outfits from a single carry-on.
Can I wear resort wear when I’m not on vacation?
Yes, resort wear works well beyond the trip. Easy pull-on pants, maxi dresses and matching sets suit weekend brunches, warm evenings and everyday errands. Wear a crochet top with denim, or dress a maxi dress up with heels and gold jewelry. It is a simple way to keep that vacation feeling going all year.
