Established in London in 2007, Star Mela is a collection famed for celebrating warm weather dressing.
Designers Amanda and Kirstines' continued mission is to create fresh summer clothes and accessories at affordable price points.
Inquisitive travellers, their Instagram feed is filled with their trips to far flung places to seek out inspiration for the collections. and ensure easy-to-wear pieces that can be thrown in a suitcase at a moment’s notice that will look great wherever you are.
Inspired by trips to Peru, Mexico and Romania, the summer collection draws on ancient embroidery techniques on delicately detailed poncho tops in deep petrol blue and cross body bags zigzagged with patterns and stripes. Oversized silhouettes and natural materials will keep you cool all summer long, whilst the folk inspired influence raises the game on all your summer basics.
