H&M x The White Lotus is the high street collab you need for your next holiday

Independent19-02-2025

Transporting us to warmer climes, Mike White's cult hit The White Lotus is back on our screens and, in the collaboration we never knew we needed, H&M has teamed up with the series' costume designer, for a resort-themed fashion line.
The third series is set in Koh Samui, an island off the coast of Thailand, known for its white sand beaches, temples, dense jungle and crystal-clear waters. As always, mystery and murder threaten to spoil the guests' time at the luxury White Lotus resort.
Just as the first two seasons caused a boost in travel to Hawaii and Taormina in Sicily, respectively, there's already been a spike in tourism to Koh Samui. British Airways has seen a 33 per cent rise in popularity, while reservations are up by 44 per cent, according to Opodo.
Whether you're planning your own The White Lotus -inspired holiday to the idyllic Thai island or you're jetting off for a beach holiday in Europe, one thing's for sure: H&M has your wardrobe covered.
Designed in collaboration with Warner Bros, the show's season-three costume designer, Alex Bovaird, has evoked the luxurious, sun-drenched look of the show in the new 25-piece high street collection.
Costing between £18 and £118, it's the ultimate summer holiday suitcase capsule – think crochet and floral open-work, playful lotus flower and elephant motifs that nod to the show's tropical location, and ruffled, voluminous silhouettes that would slot right into the wardrobe of Jennifer Coolidge's character, Tanya. As for accessories, expect plunge swimsuits, shell jewellery, pom-pom leather slides and raffia beach bags.
H&M collaborations have a history of selling out within just hours. So, set your alarms for tomorrow morning (20 February) when the new The White Lotus resort collection drops. To help you check out faster, we've rounded up our favourite pieces from the line below.
Perfect for throwing on over a bikini and looking instantly put-together while on holiday, this floaty chiffon dress belies its sub-£100 price tag. Characterised by Seventies-style ruffles and an open neck fastening, the cascading silhouette is elevated by the tiered maxi hem. Adding that final luxurious touch, the rich wine-red finish is sheer, letting your swimwear peak through.
You'll more than get your cost-per-wear with this floral dress. The flattering style features a midi length hem and plunge V-neckline, while cut-out detailing around the waist adds interest. Owing to the monochrome pattern, it will slot seamlessly into your holiday capsule, whether thrown over a bikini during the day or dressed up with heeled sandals and jewellery for dinner.
This babydoll mini dress will not only take up next to no space in your suitcase, it will take you from the beach to the bar. Distinguished by its super mini hemline, the dress is detailed with floral embroidery, scallop shoulder straps and a flattering square neckline. The loose, flowy silhouette has ample comfort appeal, too.
Neck scarfs are this season's hottest accessory, and this silk take from the H&M x The White Lotus collab is perfect for hot climes. The purple-tone dragon pattern pays homage to Koh Samui culture, while the silky finish will add a luxurious touch to your holiday ensembles. Tie it around your neck with neutral outfits or wear it as a headband.
H&M x The White Lotus pom pom leather sandals: £64.99, Hm.com
These statement summer sandals are crafted from smooth brown leather, but the pom-pom detailing is the star of the show. The pair of wide foot straps is connected at the front by a loop, creating a slightly gathered effect. The playful straw pom-pom and ball beads form at the junction of the straps, while leather whipstitching adds to the premium look.
A dress character Tanya would be enviable of, this mini dress is the ultimate statement holiday piece. Featuring on-trend ruffles down the neckline and long sleeves, the billowy silhouette is thanks to the chiffon fabrication. Finished in a deep coral colour, it's the perfect hue to complement a sunset dinner.
No suitcase is complete without a reliable beach bag. This straw style from the H&M and The White Lotus collaboration looks like it will fit in everything but the kitchen sink. The large shopper is crafted with braided paper straw for a perfectly beachy look, featuring two handles with knotted ends. Plus, there's a zipped inside pouch with a strap attached to one handle, for valuables.
H&M x The White Lotus one shoulder patterned bikini top: £27.99, Hm.com
Complete with matching bottoms, this bikini top is an elevated take on swimwear. We love the attention to detail, from the one-shoulder silhouette to the ruching at the front. Finished in a monochrome floral pattern, the expensive-looking piece costs less than £30.
H&M x The White Lotus patterned halterneck swimsuit: £37.99, Hm.com
Another statement swimwear piece, this purple patterned one-piece features a halterneck, which can be tied and adjusted. The plunge silhouette is a flattering choice, while the high-cut leg creates a more seamless silhouette. Fully lined with a low-cut back, it's complete with concealed silicone tape around the leg openings and at the front of the neckline, for a more secure fit.

However, the hot weather certainly hadn't prevented attendees from putting their best foot forward in the fashion stakes.

Naturally head-gear was the focal point of many of the ladies' outfits with the woman showcasing an impressive display of hats, fascinators and headpieces. Keen to keep their cool, many racegoers came prepared for the hot weather, armed with hand-held fans and parasols. And of course plenty of sunglasses were seen perched on the noses of the well-heeled attendees today as squinting is hardly stylish. The famous event attracts plenty of famous faces, including celebrities, sports personalities and of course royalty. Each year the royal family flocks to Ascot to witness the action. However, on Thursday the Princess of Wales pulled out of Royal Ascot at the last minute as she continues her cancer recovery. It is understood that Kate, 43, was "disappointed" that she wasn't going but 'has to find the right balance' on returning to full time duty. She attended Trooping the Colour and Order of the Garter in recent days plus a visit to V&A East Storehouse last week. Known as the pinnacle of British horse racing, Royal Ascot is not just about the thrilling sport but also a celebration of style, tradition, and culinary indulgence. Kate drops out of Royal Ascot at the last minute as she 'finds the right balance' in return to work after cancer Each year, this iconic event attracts over 250,000 visitors across five days, offering an unforgettable experience steeped in history and glamour. Dress to Impress Fashion takes centre stage at Royal Ascot, with each enclosure offering its unique sartorial expectations. The prestigious Royal Enclosure demands the highest level of formality. Gentlemen are required to don morning suits complete with top hats, while ladies must adhere to a refined dress code: dresses or skirts that fall just above the knee or longer, straps of at least one inch in width, and, of course, a statement hat is non-negotiable. For those in the Queen Anne Enclosure, the dress code is still elegant but slightly more relaxed, allowing for a touch of personal flair. Meanwhile, the Windsor Enclosure is the most informal of the three. Although there's no strict dress code here, smart attire is encouraged to maintain the event's sophisticated atmosphere. A Historic Beginning Royal Ascot has a fascinating history that dates back to 1711. 9 Guests camer well-prepared for the sweltering termperatures Credit: PA 9 Hand-held fans were the perfect accessory for keeping guests cool Credit: PA 9 No hat? No problem! A paradol provided shade to this glam guest Credit: PA 9 This brightly-dressed racegoer was all-smiles as she arrived It all began when Queen Anne, during a ride from Windsor Castle, came across a piece of land she thought was perfect for horse racing, describing it as 'ideal for horses to gallop at full stretch.' This marked the birth of Ascot Racecourse. The first Royal Meeting was held in 1768, and over the years, it has grown into Britain's most iconic racing event, blending centuries-old tradition with the excitement and glamour of the modern day. The Daily Schedule Each day at Royal Ascot is meticulously planned to ensure a seamless blend of racing and pageantry. Gates open at 10:30am, with the much-anticipated royal procession taking place at 2pm, a moment that sets the tone for the day's festivities. Racing enthusiasts can look forward to seven nail-biting races, starting at 2:30pm and concluding at 6:10pm. Beyond the Racing: A Feast for the Senses Royal Ascot is not just a sporting event; it's a feast for the senses. Culinary excellence is a hallmark of the occasion, with 350 chefs crafting an array of exquisite dishes. ROYAL ASCOT BETTING OFFERS - BEST FREE BET RACING DEALS ROYAL ASCOT LIVE - ALL THE LATEST ON EVERY RACE Across the five days, guests will indulge in 220,000 handcrafted afternoon tea cakes, 7,300 Angus steaks, and 3,000 kilograms of salmon.

As for beverages, the statistics are as impressive as the event itself. An estimated 65,000 bottles of Champagne and 100,000 bottles of wine are consumed, ensuring the celebrations flow as freely as the bubbly. A Grand Affair The scale of Royal Ascot is nothing short of extraordinary. In 2023, the event saw approximately 400 helicopters and 1,000 luxury cars ferrying guests to the racecourse. On average, 60,000 attendees graced the grounds each day, making it a true highlight of Britain's social calendar.
