While selecting clothes for summer, comfort and protection from the heat are very important. Light-coloured clothes are preferred as they reflect heat and help keep the body cool. Fabrics should be light in weight and made from natural fibres such as cotton, linen, or khadi, as they absorb sweat and allow proper air circulation. Clothes should be loose-fitting to permit free movement of air and reduce sweating. Simple designs and minimal layering are suitable for hot weather. Clothes should also be easy to wash and quick-drying, as frequent washing is required during summer due to excessive sweating.
