Product Insights & Style Tips

SIMKHAI's Criss Gingham Drop-Waist Mini Dress channels city-ready polish with a playful check. Made in a crisp cotton blend, the classic gingham plaid feels fresh and tactile, moving with a light, casual swing. A spread collar and partial button front keep the line sharp, while elbow-length sleeves and a drop waist read as relaxed, modern, and versatile, with the hem hitting above the knee.

Slip over the top for easy wear, and the drop waist creates a forgiving shape through the hips. The partial front closure hints at detail, while the silhouette remains clean enough to belt to accentuate the waist or wear loose for a breezy mood. It layers easily over a fine-knit or under a cropped jacket, and easily shifts from desk to dinner with ankle boots, sandals, or sneakers.

SIMKHAI sits at the crossroads of crisp shirting and playful checks, translating into pieces that feel polished yet ready to move. The Criss dress echoes the brand's blend of tailored ease with a wink of retro charm, making it a versatile go-to for seasons to come.

Simkhai Resort 2027 Lets The Materials Do The Talking

Simkhai Brings Coastal California Vibes for Spring 2026

Spring 2026 finds Jonathan Simkhai basking in the golden haze of the West Coast with a collection aptly titled Beach Happy. This season, the designer channels breezy optimism and the carefree rhythm of coastal living into a wardrobe that feels like an invitation to step barefoot into the sand. The mood is light yet intentional, weaving sun-drenched ease with an urban polish that keeps the looks from veering into escapist fantasy. Think diaphanous maxis, crisp linen sets, and knit bikinis paired with cover-ups that shift effortlessly from oceanfront mornings to early evening cocktails. His Los Angeles roots anchor the collection, transforming personal nostalgia into pieces that resonate far beyond Pacific tides.

Upgrade Your Fall Style With Jonathan Simkhai’s Latest Collection
