Jungle fever

This designer palm print bikini from Mara Hoffman evokes 70s glamour with its (super-flattering) classic triangle cups and adjustable string ties. Love the look but not the price tag? Opt for this mix ‘n’ match leaf print bikini top from ASOS.

Carting your beach paraphernalia is no longer a chore thanks to this uber-stylish banana-leaf print tote bag, handmade from natural materials such as cotton rope and hessian. Switch to the matching clutch for beachside bar sundowners.

It’s a wrap

Cover up with a jungle print sarong. We love this banana leaf print number by J by Jasper Conran.

Palm perfect

Fancy a break from the sun? Retire to the shade for a spot of lunch in a simple cotton wrap dress. We love the vibrant red and blue print and effortless chic of this Zara dress with its exotic palms against an Aztec-inspired backdrop.
