When it comes to dressing for the summer heat, choosing the right fabrics is key. Here are five top picks that not only keep you stylish but also ensure maximum comfort during the scorching season.
Cotton
It’s comfortable, highly breathable, and durable – it’s basically everything you need your summer clothes to be. Cotton can be considered the most versatile fabric of all as it can be woven or knitted and mixed with other fabrics to create blends that will help you achieve the desired look. And while there is no dearth of stylish cotton clothes, here’s the ones we love.
Linen
The most commonly used fabric in the fashion industry, linen is a loosely woven fabric known for its lightweight and highly absorbent nature; it dries quickly and helps you stay cool as a cucumber all day long. Does this make you look for linen clothes for your summer wardrobe? Here’s some recommendations from us!
Chambray
It may look like denim because of the way this fabric is woven, but is much lighter and softer. Ideal for summers, it is typically made of tightly woven cotton. Swap those denim bottoms with a chambray alternative for this season, and experience the breathable comfort of this fabric for yourself. But chambray is not just limited to being a substitute for denims; here’s some kurtis and dresses in the same fabric to check out.
Khadi
Sabyasachi Mukherjee has been using this skin-friendly fabric for years and this coarse cotton fabric has been making its way into many designers’ collections now. It not only keeps the body cool and feels light, it is also a sustainable fabric. The unique quality of khadi is that it can be worn both in summer and winter, making it a great investment for your wardrobe.
Poplin
Ideal for the summer months, poplin fabric feels comfortable to the touch and is highly breathable making it the go-to choice of many for this season. Another reason why we love poplin for summers is because of its durability, owing to its tighter weave.
