Summer has finally arrived!!  We all basically know cotton is a good material to wear it in the summer. Why should wear cotton clothes in summer? During the summer, we sweat more. On the other hand, cotton is a good absorber of water. Cotton absorbs sweat from our body and exposes the liquid to the atmosphere, making the evaporation faster. During evaporation, particles on the body of the liquid gain energy from our body surface, making yourself cool. So, you should invest in garments made of lightweight, breathable fabrics. So let’s go over a few of these best useable fabrics in summer.

1. Cotton

Cotton comes in a number of varieties and you want to make sure to get one that is summer appropriate. Before you buy any item, do the following to test its weight and breath ability.

• The breath-test — Put the fabric over your mouth and try breathing. If you have to suck hard to get air. So, don’t buy it.

• The light-test — Hold the garment at least some distance away from a light source. Can you see through it? If not, don’t buy it.

Top 3 reasons to wear cotton in summer:

1. Comfort:

Comfortability is an inherent characteristic of cotton made clothing.  It is weather resistant yet provides breathability between clothes and the skin.  Because it is so comfortable to wear, many prefer cotton fabrics when it comes to underwear and undershirts.

    2. Moisture Control

It is absorbent; therefore, good for moisture control.  It absorbs liquid away from your body. This helps eliminate moisture buildup between the clothes you wear and your skin in order to keep you dry.  According to experts, cotton absorbs around one-fifth of its weight before it can be considered as damp.

   3. Eco -Friendly:

Cotton is less toxic compared with other synthetic fibre. Cloth fibres which are synthetically prepared are treated with chemicals. Most of these can be absorbed by the skin. These harms, not only the skin but the whole body as well.  

2.  Linen

The main benefit of wearing linen clothes in hot weather is the coolness. Linen is highly absorbent and a good conductor of heat. Your linen garment feels cool to the touch and linen fabric will quickly remove perspiration from the skin. Linen is capable of absorbing moisture and then and quickly yielding it again.

3.  Tropical Weight Wool

You might be surprised to see wool on this list. But wool actually has a very wide comfort range and adapts to almost any weather condition. Wool is typically woven in weights to match the climate — you can get heavy wool for cold winters as well as a lightweight and breathable weight for the warmer weather. For summer, you obviously want to go for the latter. Tropical weight wool’s unique properties make it great for summer.

• Moisture-wicking: When you sweat, wool actually pulls the water away from your skin, into the fabric, and then dissipates into the atmosphere.

• Odor Resistant: Wool is naturally odour resistant. Not only does it help keep you dry, but it keeps you from getting smelly.

• Wrinkle Resistant: Good quality wool does a great job of resisting wrinkling. It will actually back into shape if you let it hang up in your closet — which means minimal ironing.

• Easy to clean: Because of wool’s natural odour resistance and moisture-wicking properties, if you just leave it hanging in your closet and wear the garment once every 7-10 days, it will be good as new. The only time you really need to get wool dry cleaned is if you spill something on it and need to get a stain out.

Colours You Should Be Wearing in Summer:

Lighter and brighter colours are more summer appropriate because they better reflect the summer mood. The sun is shining, flowers are bloomed, everybody feeling happier. The big benefit of wearing light & bright colours is that they keep you cooler in the sun. As most people know, dark colours absorb the heat, so you should avoid those. The lighter your clothes, the less heat they will  absorb.
