Marking two decades of design, Monica Paolini and Sean Monahan return to their roots for Sea’s Resort 2027 collection, drawing inspiration from the riverside character and maritime heritage of their hometown, Newburgh, New York. Set against the backdrop of the Hudson Valley, the collection reflects the brand’s enduring ability to balance romance with practicality, weaving together nautical utility, vintage sportswear references, and refined femininity into a wardrobe that feels both nostalgic and distinctly contemporary.
Sea, the New York-based label lauded for its signature interplay of utilitarian edge and soft femininity, unveiled its Resort 2026 collection through a thoughtfully curated lookbook that speaks to the season’s complex versatility. Co-designer Sean Monahan remarked on the importance of wide-ranging appeal for resort dressing—and this collection meets that challenge with graceful ease. From tailored sportswear and polished workwear separates to lush velvet party dresses and whimsical balloon bloomers adorned with cargo pockets, Sea reaffirms its mastery of constructing wardrobes that are as practical as they are poetic.
