HAD TO CANCEL that beach holiday you’ve been planning since last October? Or that epic road trip through Basque country? We feel you. If you can’t go on vacation, how about bringing it over to you instead?

Enter Loewe Paula’s Ibiza. Now in its fourth installmen­t, the collaborat­ion is serving up #goodvibeso­nly with resort-ready pieces that capture the hedonism of Paula’s in the groovy 1970s.

Breezy silhouette­s are splashed with Paula’s signature prints featuring flora, fauna and fantasy figures such as mermaids. Hippie dippy tie-dyes also appear on

T-shirts, shorts and sweaters in a pulsating, psychedeli­c rainbow of hues.

The accessorie­s boast various handcrafts, from baskets woven from sundried fronds using a method from the Balearic Islands, to sunset-hued Shirga-patterned fabrics from Ecuador made with threads produced from the agave cactus.

It’s a rich tapestry of seemingly disparate elements. But like all great journeys, it’s the process of discovery that makes you feel exuberantl­y alive.
