Top Summer Fabrics That Feel Light in Hot Sunny Weather
Dips in the lake, parties by the pool and cool air in the evening, this definitely sounds like summer. We all know that soft, breathable fabrics feel like shades of summer. To enjoy the warmth of the sun on your skin, you need to embrace the right textiles, such as a cotton kurta set or a mulmul kurta.
Sweat-absorbent fabrics and chic designs make for wearable classics. With humidity filling the streets and sweat overstaying its natural welcome, soft fabrics and textiles make beautiful silhouettes. For long, reserved holiday vacations, women are going back to their roots by wearing lawn cotton kurta sets.
Soft & Breathable Cotton
Summer’s safest and most soulful companion, cotton is your best friend for May/June in India. Whether you choose to wear a crisp white cotton silk kurta or a pastel cotton kurta set, style it with the right accessories for an astonishing yet easygoing look.
Luxurious & Lightweight Mulmul
As soft as a cloud, the mulmul kurta set feels almost weightless on the skin. Airy and comfortable, it drapes beautifully without clinging to the body. Its romantic charm and simplicity are perfect for brunches and dinner parties. Pair a mulmul kurta with cotton pants for a lunch scene with friends.
Fluid & Flattering Rayon
While it is slightly heavier than cotton, the rayon kurta set feels smooth and silky. Beautiful and durable, this fine fabric makes structured yet soft silhouettes. A minimalist’s first love, you can never go wrong with rayon during the summer months.
Smooth & Comforting Modal
Its shrink-resistant qualities and stretchy fabric make it a perfect choice for warm weather. Whether you are travelling or running from one meeting to another, a modal kurta set is an ideal pick for long, hectic days. Style it with a structured handbag and bandhani print dupatta for a luxe look.
Silky & Elegant Viscose
The silky finish of viscose without the heaviness of traditional silk makes it a fine choice for warm weather. Daytime events are now sorted, thanks to moisture-absorbing and flowy viscose kurta sets. Available in multiple fabrics and designs, viscose is a trendsetter for the summer edit.
Slow Summer Evenings with Muslin Co-ord Set
Traditionally woven and airy, muslin drapes beautifully without clinging to the body. Ideal for when you want to look refined without feeling heavy. Let’s say an art gallery visit or a Kirtan meet at the temple. The fabric complements your soft, feminine and fluid appearance.
