Ethnic Wear for summer: Keeping it cool
Fashion in summer months is all about keeping it cool. Ethnic clothing is the ultimate in this respect. Kaftans, Kurtas, etc. for men and Kaftan tops, skirts, scarves, etc. for women are all you need to chill out in the scalding summer heat.
This summer, Kaftans are haute couture. Long sleeved cotton kaftans in various earthy shades like greens, blues or maroons provide one of the best solutions to beat the heat in style. Great looking designs are available too, from simple flowery patches to complex needlework or tie-dye designs. For men, the cotton unisex kaftans will go well with jeans and sandals. Women can match up the kaftan with long skirts, churidars or even jeans. A strappy sandal would complete the cool chic look perfectly. Kaftan-styled tops are also good choices for women. They can be worn like kaftans, but are shorter and even cooler than full-length kaftans.
Kurtas will definitely come next in keeping the wearer cool. Full sleeved or short sleeved, these items provide good choice to people looking to look trendy in the heat of summer months. Made of cotton or silk, these provide excellent match with jeans or churidars. They can be worn with both shoes and sandals, thus providing far greater versatility than kaftans. Available in both tie-dye and plain styles, these make excellent styles.
Scarves are just not for winter. Cotton and silk scarves make excellent addition to summer clothing as well. Simple designs lighter colours make these cool fashion solutions for the hotter months of the year.
Summer is the time for gypsy and crinkle skirts. These skirts keep the wearer cool, as long as providing brownie points in the fashion conscious category. These skirts are perfect solutions for young women on the move.
No fashion is complete without the right kind of footwear. Strappy sandals made of straw can be the solution for sweaty feet at the end of the day. Shoes will do, but the socks must be washed regularly to avoid the dilemma of sweaty feet with bad odour.
These tips should help any fashion conscious person beat the heat in style in summer.
