When I think of Kurt Geiger, one word springs to mind: fun. Since opening its first store on London’s Bond Street in 1963, the label has been fine tuning the art of dopamine dressing, subsequently turning vibrant colour and maximalist details into its signature.
And while the British weather is currently doing absolutely nothing for my serotonin levels, the brand’s new collection – aptly named Kurt’s Cabana – definitely is. It’s a playful, fashion-first ode to the British summer fantasy. Think retro country club energy reimagined through a bold, maximalist lens. In other words: dopamine dressing at its peak.
Kurt Geiger's summer range, named Kurt’s Cabana, is a playful ode to the British summer fantasy
I've selected my favourite pieces from the range, including statement heels, a versatile scarf and kaleidoscopic handbags
In my opinion, the Kurt’s Cabana collection takes a slightly surreal approach to the classic English summer aesthetic, nodding to pristine tennis courts and old-school country club codes without losing sight of the accessible luxury label’s flamboyant seal.
Naturally, accessories steal the spotlight; exactly what we’d expect from Kurt Geiger. The brand’s iconic Kensington bag has been reworked with punchy stripes, fringe trims and rope accents, while a new offering of oversized totes in vinyl, stripey and block colourways are demanding my attention for beach trips.
The Kurt's Cabana collection is a masterclass in dopamine dressing
The ready-to-wear collection feels like permission to approach fashion with unapologetic joy: expressive, escapist and a little theatrical, while still looking eminently chic.
These are the 10 pieces I’m shopping from Kurt's Cabana, all priced under £200…
Nothing is set to deliver poolside dopamine to me this summer quite like this Kurt’s Cabana swimsuit. I adore the combination of the vibrant swirl print with the brand's signature brass eagle heads. Plus, it has an open back, which adds a flirty edge.
This Mini Kensington in vibrant pink and orange Terry towelling is a high-energy centerpiece for my dopamine dressing rotation this summer. I love how the signature eagle head, fringing and rope strap elevate the out-there print.
I’m really into this cropped baby Tee for its nostalgic vibe, and love even more that it only costs £59. With playful ringer detailing in a delicious terracotta and sun-drenched graphics, it offers a crisp white base that still stays on theme for Kurt's Cabana.
No notes on these heels. I'm drooling over the dramatic ankle tie and sky-high block heel. Plus, the vibrant yellow embroidery ensures they’ll be the focal point of any summer evening look.
This pink and white pastel design hits the spot for a shoulder bag fiend like myself. It's more understated than the other bags in Kurt's Cabana, so perfect for days when I want to induce some dopamine without attracting too much attention.
All the cool-girls are wearing scarves to elevate their summer outfits, and this is the only one you need for dopamine dressing. I'll be styling it everywhere and with everything: on my neck, over my hair, on my waist, even around my tote bag handle.
These Terry towelling flatforms are bringing a surge of energy to my summer wardrobe. With an 8cm lift (very necessary when you're as short as me at 5'1), they offer the perfect balance of tactile comfort and bold style. These paired with an all-white linen outfit? Chef's kiss.
For summer evenings with a bit of a chill in the air, this 100% cotton hoodie is a must-have. I love how the branded patch contrasts with the rust hue, and it's cropped in length so will work with skirts, jeans and shorts.
Beach clubs, here I come. This oversized canvas tote, in all its candy-striped pattern and sunny yellow branding, is the ultimate carryall for a day by the sea. The vibrant mix of stripes instantly brightens any outfit while still offering hoards of space for essentials.
I'm into these Islington Curve sneakers for their fresh, athletic silhouette that's elevated through playful mesh textures and pastel pops. The contrast of the pink laces against the sleek white leather makes these my go-to for adding an energetic finish to a casual daytime look.
