If you are residing in Mumbai, Dombivli, Kalyan or even Thane, the office-goers, are rendered vulnerable to the eccentricities of the rains, the now-sun-now-rain phenomenon. Now, that means more wet clothes and more time to dry them because of less sunlight available. Well, you can't fight the rains, you see.
And you are bound to get wet, sometime, someday. So, the next best alternative is to wear attires which are 'heat and monsoon-friendly.'
Manisha Mahadik, fashion designer from Thane district, says that the best material for shirting is mix of cotton and polyester. In summer, one would do best not to go for 100 % cotton shirts because they take time to dry and if cotton materials do not get enough sunlight, then they may carry a stench. You will have to empty your perfume bottle to overcome the stench which comes from 100 % cotton shirts.
A mix of cotton and polyester material makes for the best recipe for comfort wear during monsoon. It gets dried easily and if you happen to get wet on your way to work or back, the shirt may not lose its crease after it dries. The cotton shirt once wet needs to be ironed after it dries, lest it takes on a lousy look.
If you are crazy about wearing jeans trousers, then this monsoon, you may need to buy an extra pair of trousers as jeans takes a lot of time to dry after it gets wet or washed.
Also, it gets a bit too heavy for comfort. Jeans is not the material for monsoon. Go for corduroys instead, which is a bit lighter than jeans.
For exclusive formal trousers, use mix of cotton and polyester. Use lighter material fabric for trousers as it will be comfortable to wear and also, they will dry soon if they get wet on way to office.
Leather needs care
Take extra care of leather articles like belts and shoes. Once wet, clean leather belts or shoes with a dry cloth and give them some sunlight or keep them under a fan till fully dried. Never put on wet belt or shoes: not only will they stench, but they may also spoil your clothes as they leave marks of colour.
Always use a good perfume. It's a romantic season, remember? Also, take extra care of articles like watches, pens, mobiles and laptops during the rains. They aren't exactly great bedfellows, you see.
Pants can be 'hot' in rains
Just in case you thought, rains can spoil your mood (read looks), be assured you can make the most of rains to look fabulous. Fashion designer from Thane, Manisha Mahadik has some lissome ideas on offer:
Calf length pants spell sexy this season. Hot bermudas in beige, black and navy blue teamed with olive greens, bright reds, oranges formal shirts look fantastic for daywear. Capris in hues of dark brown and black work best with bright , solid colours to lighten one's spirits on a dull day. Capris can also be teamed with short three-fourths length ethnic kurtis in hues of peacock blue, purple, red, maroon and parrot green.
Short flare skirts and knee length halter neck dresses with a scarf of exotic desi-gns are a must have for evening wear.
The little black dress is totally out. Dresses in peacock blue, soft pinks and bright orange are the sexiest colours this season.
Kiss goodbye to denims, white outfits, long ethnic skirts, saris and leather this season.
However, if you are freak on denim, opt for light weight denim fabric. Knee-length cargos of synthetic fabric is a must have this season. Asymmetrical-fitting synthetic kaftans are super hot this season when teamed with a tight-fitting mini skirt.
Cargos in hues of red rust, light orange and military green is a must have this season for everyday rains. Synthetic jackets in Chnese white and lemony yellow works best on any outfit.
Blacks and grays are totally out this season. Dark colours are totally no-no. The wardrobe during the monsoons is restricted to the 2 Cs: colour and comfort. It's best to invest on trendy monsoon wear, an umbrella and a transparent rain coat. No matter what you wear, the transparent raincoat will always make you look super sexy.
Rubber mules and slippers in bright shades look great. Hot pink, navy blue, red and orange are the hottest colours for footwear this season.
Keep your leather pumps and boots safe inside your shoe cabinet.
Leather bags are out this season. Opt for transparent plastic gigantic bags in bold colours. Remember: the bigger, the better.
