Next has all the right looks for summer

The season of festivals and beach holidays, of days by the pool and nights under a starry Mediterranean sky. Next has the looks to take every woman, man and child anywhere from the summer's hottest festivals to relaxing on the beaches of Goa, from back garden barbecues to a romantic roadtrip down Route 66.

Pale washed denim is key. Think flirty ruffled dresses or lightweight wear-anywhere utility jackets.

You'll love the grungy florals, track-pant jeans and cute shorts, our gloriously on-trend clogs and fabulous studded wellingtons.

You'll adore our halter-neck maxi-dresses and the gorgeous enamel flower cuffs. In striking contrast, Next's 'Night Fever' and 'Ibiza' themes have all the sizzling hot glamour of body-con dresses and killer heels, not forgetting the wow factor of super sexy sequined swimwear and big, bold sunglasses.

Meanwhile, menswear takes to that fabled 2,400 mile long American highway in distressed jeans, soft check shirting, graphic tees and nylon bomber jackets.

Hi summer childrenswear is awash with eye-popping colour and engaging trends, from character t-shirts and cool board shorts for boys, to versions of fashion's favourite global traveller and festival themes perfectly scaled for little girls.

Next also has the best ever deals for al fresco living. Fabulous furniture and accessories to transform every patio, deck and balcony into an outdoor room.
