The 6 Pillars of Margot Robbie's Flawless Summer Wardrobe

If there's one thing that could be even more impressive than Margot Robbie's CV—which includes roles in I, Tonya; Suicide Squad; The Wolf of Wall Street; and her latest film, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood—it's her wardrobe.

Since she was catapulted into the spotlight back in 2011, Margot has become a bona fide fashion darling who wears Chanel, Gucci, and Alexander McQueen on the red carpet on a regular basis. However, upon closer inspection, what I'm more impressed by is Margot's off-duty outfits—particularly what she wears in her downtime during the summer. (Maybe it's an Aussie thing.)

Whether she's soaking up the rays on Clapham Common, London (where I've personally seen her picnicking with pals), or hitting up the beach on an exotic getaway, Margot never fails to look effortlessly cool. However, you don't need endless amounts of clothes to replicate her wares. In fact, Margot heavily relies on just six items to see her through the warmer months.

Style Notes: Margot knows that sometimes less is most definitely more, which is why she always turns to simple '90s-style minidresses with exceptionally thin straps. They make the perfect blank canvas for out-there accessories.

Style Notes: Before milkmaid tops were even a thing, Margot was wearing tops with statement puff sleeves with edgy ripped jeans. Ahead of the curve? We'd expect nothing less.

3. Linen Jumpsuits

Style Notes: Make like Margot and steer clear of heavy fabrics. Instead, be sure to opt for linen. Had this jumpsuit been any other material, Margot would have risked overheating. With a breathable fabric, however, she proves you can indeed wear all-in-ones in the height of summer.

4. Straw Hats

Style Notes: You'll seldom find Margot without her trusty straw hat during the summer months. Not only will it give your basic outfits a relaxed air, but opt for a wide-brim style and it'll also give you added protection from the sun's harsh rays.

5. Surfer Knits

Style Notes: Perhaps it's an influence from her time on the Neighbours cast, but Margot has a serious penchant for surfer style—mostly relaxed knitwear. Look for jumpers and cardigans in rainbow colours or open-weave finishes to nail the vibe. Finishing with heart-shaped glasses won't hurt, either.

Style Notes: Margot's summer style isn't just about beachy staples. When in need of some polish, the actress always dons a retro-inspired tea dress. Luckily for us, there happens to be plenty of them to choose from this season.
