As much as we have been programmed to accept lawn as the default summer fabric of all time, cotton which is essentially lawn is not the most effective option. The real unsung hero is summer linen, and by
linen we don’t mean the winter linen that weighs a ton or the malai linen that is so often confused with the real thing. Actual linen is essentially a porous light weight fabric harvested from the flax plant and known for its moisture absorbent and ventilative properties. So before you buy another lawn print, think about the humidity and the sweat! Does it really help you stay cool in current temperatures?
Loose cut and boxy Linen kurtas look smart and keep you dry! A definite must have for sticky summers, linen as a fabric is breathable yet chic so a good simply tailored kurta goes a long way from smart day wear at the office to casual coffees and dinners. Additionally it is eternally in fashion making it a classic statement piece each time you wear it.
A versatile linen kurta can be easily styled differently each time you wear it as the main feature is the cut and color. Pair it with a fun silk scarf or a printed dupatta or switch up the bottoms with a skinny shalwar or culottes depending on your mood. Now we have it on good authority that Sapphire has something exciting coming your way soon so think linen and stay tuned for more details!
