Cotton

This natural fabric is one of the coolest ones for summer season and heatwaves. It is soft, lightweight, breathable, and soaks up sweat, allowing heat to escape and helps you stay cool.

Linen

This durable natural fabric derived from the flax plant is light, breathable, and loosely woven, allowing heat to escape the body effectively. It absorbs moisture and dries quickly, making it one of the top choices among summer fabrics.

Silk

Silk is a natural protein fibre that is produced by silkworms. It transports moisture well and helps create a cool and airy effect instead of sticking to the body.

Rayon

It is a man-made fabric blend of cotton, wood pulp, and other natural or synthetic fibres. Its extremely thin fibres make it more breathable and lighter, thus preventing it from sticking to the body on sweltering days.

Hemp

It is made using fibres from the stalks of the Cannabis Sativa plant and provides the softness of a natural textile along with durability. It can breathe and has excellent moisture-wicking properties.
