At this point, we might as well crown Elsa Hosk queen of Instagram because her feed serves as a master class in dressing to impress, thanks to a bountiful number of outfits posted nearly every day. The 34-year-old model can be seen toting the latest must-have It bag by Prada or showing us how to style the trendiest shoe of the season. (They’re Alaïa’s mesh ballet flats, just in case you were wondering.) So it only made sense to find out what’s on her summer shopping list.
As expected, the lineup of must-haves for the season is filled with coveted superstars, from labels like Miu Miu as well as Khaite. And of course, there are affordable pieces from her very own brand, Helsa, which recently launched a showstopping collection of evening gowns titled Atelier. “Since the initial launch of Helsa, we’ve come out with six drops that have all pretty much sold out within day one,” Hosk reveals to Vogue. “I’ve loved seeing that the pieces I love also resonate so much with our customers and community. It’s still the beginning for us, so I do as much as I can: the design, the art direction for shoots, the styling, the fittings, and the modeling. I feel lucky to have been in this industry for so long and been able to learn from the most incredible people and all the different jobs on set.”
Well, we feel lucky to have the chance to discover all the fashion finds Hosk is shopping for this summer. Read on to unearth and shop the lust-worthy items at the top of her list.

Helsa Cotton Poplin Midsummer Dress
I wear this dress with our Helsa puffy slides in white and a little half-moon bag from The Row; it’s the easiest, comfiest, and chicest outfit for summer.
Miu Miu Ballerinas
The Miu Miu Logo Strap ballerina shoes look great with socks, without, with jeans or a miniskirt and a leather jacket. All of it!
Khaite the Large Olivia Hobo Bag
May I say this is the coolest beach bag or day-on-the-town bag to ever exist? It fits all of my and my daughter Tuuli’s stuff when we go to the beach or travel.

Wardrobe.NYC Tailored Vest and Column Skirt
This set is on my wish list for our trip to Ibiza in August. I feel like these two items are obviously perfect together as a set, but I’d also wear the waistcoat with vintage slouchy Levi’s and the skirt with a heavy black cashmere sweater and black boots in the fall. Versatile and timeless is the only way I like to shop.
Alaïa Mini Mina Belt
This belt is the best, especially to throw over a simple poplin dress. The little bag attachment fits a credit card and lipstick, and that’s all I need on a late summer night on vacation!
Helsa Linen Duster Coat
This coat is the perfect summer coat: structured and floor sweeping and elegant but still super summery and breezy. I wear it with the Helsa black or tan logo belt and rolled shorts in natural organic linen.
Miu Miu Lingerie and Alaïa Flats
I love the Miu Miu set so much. And I love accessories that can make a simple outfit more interesting. I wear the undies under a simple black column maxiskirt and a white button-up shirt, with just one button closed to show a bit of the bra, and then throw on a pair of black Alaia flats.
