Dressing right for the warmer spring/summer seasons can mean choosing the right fabrics and materials to help keep cool, and avoid embarrassing sweat stains! Below are 5 popular, breathable spring/summer fabrics (possibly already in your closet) to help you stay cool:

Cotton

Being a natural fiber, cotton lets air circulate (breathable) allowing you to cool down, and dry out moisture. Opt for light rather than dark colors in cotton order to avoid sweat marks. [1]

Cotton Poplin Shirt Dress By Maison Margiela – $1265

Panther Skirt By Vivienne Westwood– $1330

Navy Blue Cotton Maxi Skirt By Alessandra Rich – ~~$660~~ $544

2. Chiffon

Chiffon is a lightweight, sheer fabric that can be woven from natural (e.g. silk, cotton) and/or synthetic (e.g. polyester, rayon) fibers. The more loosely woven the chiffon fabric is, the more airy and breathable it is for warmer seasons. [2]

Angel White Diamante Chiffon Blouse By Self-Portrait– $345

Black Pleated Chiffon Plus Size Skirt By The White Label – $53

Floral Cinch Waist Top By Andree by Unit– $54

3. Linen

Like cotton, linen is another natural fiber known to be very absorbent and breathable. A great advantage linen offers is that it doesn’t stick to your body, allowing for better circulation. [3]

Pinstripe Linen Dress By Peserico– $440

Fresh Linen Trousers By Peserico– $425

Bright Red Linen Slit Skirt By HYFVE– $54

4. Loosely Woven Silk

Silk is a natural, soft fiber known to be absorbent. Heavier, tightly woven silk clothes can retain heat and moisture, but loosely woven silk is lighter and airier – great for warm weather. [4]

Slim Fit Leopard Silk Shirt By Dolce & Gabbana– $1071

Black Blouse By Lola – Sandro Ferrone– $65

Crêpe De Chine Silk Trousers By Valentino– $1610

5. Chambray

Although similar in appearance, chambray and denim are not similar fabrics – the different way cotton is weaved to create chambray makes the fabric lighter weight, soft, and breathable and absorbent, like cotton. [5]

Chambray Wrap Skirt By Davi & Dani– $45

Light Blue Button-Up Denim Cotton Blouse By Vila– $75

Although any fabrics and materials can be enjoyed from a style sense during the summer, it’s best to keep in mind which fabrics will most likely deter embarrassing sweat stains and help keep you cool. For more fashion and style trends, check out the MyDressEdit Fashion section.
