CARMEL HARRISON (@carmelharrison_)

Thank you @harpersbazaarinteriors for the lovely feature in this months issue on my home in Dubai 🤍 “Carmel Harrison brings an elegant and nomadic spirit into the serene, story-filled interiors of her Palm Jumeirah home” “There is an immediate, grounding warmth when you enter Carmel Harrison’s home. It’s in the way sunlight kisses polished concrete floors, how green marble glows against hand-hewn wood, and in the quiet, soulful presence of books and keepsakes from faraway places. As founder and creative force behind the resort wear label Second Summer, Carmel has mastered the art of storytelling – not just in fashion, but in the very spaces she inhabits.” “Much like her brand, her home is an homage to the places that have shaped her. Chief among them is Ibiza, the Balearic island she calls her “spiritual second home”, and the muse behind Second Summer. “If I can’t live there yet,” she says, “I’ll bring the island to me.” That meant designing a space rooted in contrast and calm – bohemian yet refined, earthy yet elevated. The result is a home that doesn’t just reflect her aesthetic, but also embodies her worldview: soulful, sun-warmed and deeply personal.” Read the full feature in this months issue 🤍 #interiordesign

‘Spirit of the Wild’ launching soon 🐆 A huge thank you to @danhackstudio & @deborah.aouate for taking us to the beautiful Karoo in South Africa & capturing this special collection so beautifully. Always feels surreal to creative direct my own brand campaigns and see it come to life. @amywheatley_1 @joddiiiiiii and I had our first design meeting for this collection last summer in Ibiza - we work so hard all year to perfect the fits, the prints, the fabrics and the colours, late night zooms, calls whenever we can around our other projects, we don’t show how hard it is to work cross-country and time zones all with young kids in tow! We are truly grateful to work with such amazing creatives & models on these projects to bring our visions to life. ✨✨✨

SECOND SUMMER AW22 campaign ✨✨✨ When we launched the brand just over 2 years ago it was always a dream to be able to shoot it on the magical island of Ibiza, the place that not only inspired the brand, but a place that holds so many special memories to us. Never did we believe that we would be in a position to do this within two years of launching and with such an amazing crew and models. The most amazing bit about it was when we were shooting at Sa Punta rock we overheard two girls in the sea near by say, “oh that’s Second Summer.” To have your own label worn and recognised is a feeling like no other. This AW22 edit presents a never-seen-before side of the Second Summer woman with a nine-piece collection that unfolds the latest chapter in our deliberate and mindful fashion narrative. A sense of lightness and softness through flowing silks and rich wool-silk blends have been introduced for the very first time. A palette of cool whites, moody blacks and deep Bloodstone red evokes a sense of timelessness, whilst effortless silhouettes champion our free-spirited ideals. The perfect embodiment of the dualities of the woman who seeks to escape the ordinary.

A whole month in England just having the best times seeing all our friends and family - leaving with the fullest hearts & feeling a little emotional heading back to the sandpit. P.S.

Date night 🌙

Sun-drenched afternoons with our Ibiza island girls 🐚🐚 We gathered at the iconic El Silencio to celebrate our pop-up with Maison Néo, surrounded by the island’s inspiring creatives. Long tables, shared plates, sangria flowing and stories told under the Ibizan sun – a true celebration of community and slow living. 🌞 🤍 Thank you to everyone who joined us and made it so special. Here’s to more moments like these. #SecondSummerLabel #MaisonNeo #ElSilencioIbiza #IslandGirls
