Much has been written about heatwave dressing these past two months. Whether you’re leaning into summer whimsy, or simply trying to wear the most breathable fabrics as possible, there is an art to dressing for some of the hottest (sweltering, unbearable…) days of the year. One celebrity who is perfecting the art of scorching style? That would be Anya Taylor-Joy.
This week, the star has been promoting her new miniseries Lucky in London and Paris—and she has been taking on the extreme heat with a perfect lightweight wardrobe. Her go-to summer uniform, is a barely-there slip dress that’s ideal for even the warmest of temperatures. She first emerged in London wearing a black, sheer slip with a criss-crossed neckline—punctuated with heeled Giuseppe Zanotti mules. Later on, she switched into a white FFORME slip dress with lace detailing, from the label’s spring 2026 collection, and accessorized with dainty strappy sandals.

Both pieces are precisely the kind of frocks you want to wear when the sun is beating down onto you—in the breezy French Riviera or summering in the sticky city. They are light, airy—and pretty much barely there at all. Taylor-Joy continued this approach to summer dressing for the Lucky photo call in Paris just yesterday: She changed into a blue satiny slip dress with black lace and mesh details, courtesy of Tom Ford by Haider Ackermann’s spring 2026 collection. It’s the perfect kind of easy, slip-on-and-go piece that still packs an instant punch—especially when paired with all that Tiffany & Co. jewelry.
