Y’all. I am literally so overwhelmed and humbled by your response to our Celebrate Summer Collection yesterday. Mama Sugarplum came over to help me with the launch, and we just kept looking at each other with wide-eyes… not even believing the kind, excited, thoughtful messages that came pouring in!
Honestly, I can’t even properly articulate how I feel. It’s a mixture of shocked and overwhelmed. It’s beyond humbling, and I can only hope that my words convey all the love and gratitude I feel… thank you!
The Gibsonlook Team and I work tirelessly to create pieces that help you feel like your best self, and it’s so gratifying when we hear your joy and excitement. You inspire us to continue creating new and exciting Collections, and to raise the bar even more each time! (See the full Collection HERE.)
Yesterday was all about the individual pieces, but inquiring minds want to know what Mama Sugarplum thinks!! Which pieces she’ll wear, how she’ll wear them, along with her best sizing for each.
I could hardly wait to share it all with her for the first time, and her response was adorable! She absolutely loves it, and of course it looks darling on her! So here’s my precious Mama SP styling her faves from Gibson x Hi Sugarplum Celebrate Summer Collection!
Sidenote: I’m 5’4″ and 120-ish pounds, and usually wear a 0/XS. Mama Sugarplum is 5’1″ with an hourglass figure, and usually wears a Small/2-petite.

DRESSES & JUMPSUIT
FLAMINGO COLORBLOCK DRESS //
Crisp cotton poplin, fully-lined, pockets and knee-length… she was smitten with the Flamingo Colorblock Dress! It was the surprise hit of the Collection, and sold out before the sun came up! But we’re working on possible restocks, so stay tuned!
Fit Tip: I’m wearing XS, Mama SP in a small… but size down if in-between.

SUNBRELLA COLORBLOCK WRAP DRESS //
Hands-down her favorite dress of the Collection, Mama Sugarplum ordered both colors of the Sunbrella Colorblock Wrap Dress! The crisp cotton keeps the great fit-and-flare shape, and I can’t get over the neckline on her! It’s stunning and so chic. Dress it down with flat sandals, or jazz it up with wedges or heels.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing an XS, Mama SP in a small, but size down if in-between.

CABANA STRAPPY MAXI DRESS //
We both love a good housedress, and agreed the Cabana Strappy Maxi Dress was like wearing a favorite nightie (except worlds cuter!). The straps are a little thin for her comfort zone, so she’ll just add a denim jacket for wearing out.
Fit Tip: We’re both wearing XS-petite… with adjustable straps, it accommodates different bust sizes.

BEACHCOMBER WIDELEG HALTER JUMPSUIT //
Sass alert!! Mama Sugarplum was definitely feeling the Beachcomber Halter Jumpsuit, and I can see why! It’s stunning on her petite frame, and the longer length (she opted for a regular size) really elongated her. The fabric feels amazing, so she’ll wear it around the house with flat sandals, too.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing an XS-petite, Mama SP in a regular XS (she preferred longer length and looser fit).

SKIRT & SHORTS //
PARADISE TIERED MAXI SKIRT //
There was definitely some twirling going on the moment she slipped on the Paradise Maxi Skirt, and we both agreed they’ll be our Summer staples. She loves how it keeps her legs covered, but the lightweight material keeps her cool. It has a comfortable elastic waist, and is easy to dress up or down with tanks or tops.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing XS-petite and Mama SP a Small-petite in the skirts. It grazes my ankle and the top of her foot.

PLAYA HIGH WAIST SHORT //
Mom doesn’t wear a lot of shorts, so she was surprised by how much she loved the Playa High Waist Short! The high-waist creates a longer line, and the wider leg is flattering on the thighs. They’re soft and comfy cotton poplin, but definitely have a dressier feel. She ended up with both pairs, and loves to pair the patterns for cute sets, too.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing an XXS, Mama a small (she’s wearing an XS in the pic, but it’s tight across the tummy). Size down if you’re small-waisted.

TOPS, TANKS, & BODYSUIT //
SUNSHINE RUFFLE V-NECK TOP //
One of each, please! That was her request for the Sunshine Ruffle V-Neck! And I have to agree… the neckline is gorgeous on her, and she loves the added style while still being bra-friendly. She wears them with the skirts and shorts, or basic white jeans. It’s also long enough to wear out and cover much of the bum. See all five colors/prints HERE.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing an XS and Mama SP a small, but size down if in-between.

BONITA RUFFLE RACERBACK TANK //
Another reader-fave, the Bonita Ruffle Racerback Tank is selling fast! She loves the ruffle trim, but the racerback dips a little low on the sides for her comfort zone, so she just layers on a jean jacket for extra coverage. How cute is this combo with the belt!?
Fit Tip: We’re both wearing an XS, but I put mine in the dryer.

SEASHELL SCOOPNECK BODYSUIT //
My go-to piece for maxi skirts, the Seashell Scoopneck Bodysuit is crazy soft, and so comfortable! Mom loves the smooth silhouette under a jacket, and we all appreciate the no-wedgie style!
Fit Tip: I’m wearing an XS and Mama SP a small.

COCONUT HENLEY HALTER TANK //
And finally, the Coconut Henley Tank… the softest piece in the Collection! I only had one, so wrangled it for myself! Pair it with the skirts or short, or throw it on with cut-offs for an easy style.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing XXS, size down one

She’s so stunning, right?! I’ve got all my fingers and toes crossed that I age as beautifully and gracefully as her! It was so fun having her over again… a first since February! She’s still staying close to home, so it may be awhile before we hit the dressing rooms again.
