Welcome to The Summer Escape Issue.

This issue encourages you to explore and unwind as summer unfolds.

For our cover, we partnered with Reform Athletica in The Summer Escape, for those wanting to carve out a sense of peace and mental escape this summer and beyond, Dina Elshurafa has built a brand that gives you a place of solace from the fast pace of life in the fast lane.

We deliver you the best edits for summer dressing, from crochet detailing for sun-drenched daydreaming in The Edit to discussing brand building and travel schedules with founder of Monday Swimwear Natasha Oakley in Monday Mood. Tiffany Hsu, Chief Buying Officer at Mytheresa, also shares how you build an e-commerce brand with intellect, gut feel and a sense of individuality in A Daring Eye.

Rest, Recharge and Refocus. 

Beauty and lifestyle wise, Siffat Haider, founder of Arrae, discusses supplementing your way through summer so you can feel your best, most confident self in Svelte Summer and Strategic Partner Manager, Global Partnerships – META, Joana Jamil shares with us how the algorithm changes when you travel so you can get ahead of the curve in The Travel Algorithm. Finally, in terms of travel, Portofino’s most storied hideaway, Splendido, A Belmond Hotel, makes its much-anticipated grand reopening in The Wanderlust and Raha Moharrak, the first Saudi Arabian woman to summit Everest, tells how she prepares for climbing peaks in No Mountain Too High.

Rest, recharge and refocus this summer, ready for Q3’s level up.
