on July 2, 2023

The monsoons are officially here folks and it is considered to be a happy prospect for everyone! But from a style point of view, it can get a bit tougher as your outfit choices can get somewhat restricted. But that does not mean you need to hide your work wear or casual outfit under a windcheater jacket or raincoat.

You can slay the monsoon fashion with some trendy yet comfortable ensemble choices! We have listed a few outfit and accessory tips that can make your monsoon fashion comforting and up to the mark:

Select Outfits That Reach till Knees

Say no to full-length skirts, dresses, and pants, especially during monsoons and go for outfits that have a hemline till your ankles, calf, or knees. Think skater skirts, midi dresses, knee-length fitted skirts and more. Complement it with fancy tops, shirts and tunics that are appropriate for formal or casual wear.

Select the Fabrics Wisely

Opt for lighter fabrics like cotton, nylon, chiffon, linen, recycled polyester, etc which are easy to dry and won't get damaged with rainwater exposure. Avoid wearing denim, silk, and more such heavy fabrics which stick to the body when they are wet and it takes long hours to dry such fabrics too.

Pick Outfits in Bright Colours

Your neutral or pastel-tone outfits can take a backseat at least till the monsoons get over. For your rainy day fashion, stick with dark or bright colour outfits as the water patches are less visible on the same and so are the mud stains. Plus, on a dull, rainy day, you can lift your spirit and feel cheerful wearing a bright colour ensemble!

Kurta or Tunic with Cropped Pants

There is nothing more uncomfortable than full-length trousers or pants getting wet in the rain or being filled with mud stains. In monsoons, it is better to stick with cropped pants, ankle-length pants, culottes, and capri pants that allow for comfort while walking in the rain. You can team it up with subtle print kurtis, tunics, or shirt dresses for formal wear. And for casual outfit requirements, it is ok to experiment with busy patterned or bold-tone top wear!

Flaunt a Short Romper

Wearing short pants or skirts is of course a trendy choice for elevating your monsoon style. But if you wish for something cute yet stylish monsoon outfit, then opt for a romper. You can experiment with various styles like pin-striped rompers, printed rompers, plain rompers, and more. This cute and casual outfit is perfect to take a walk when you wish to enjoy the rain!

Carry a Waterproof Tote

A medium to big-size waterproof tote bag is your best bet while commuting out every day during monsoon season. You can keep your books, laptop, phone, tiffin box, makeup essentials, etc easily in a waterproof bag without having to worry about your stuff getting wet with rainwater. Pick an attractive colour or print for the tote to add some spunk to your monsoon style!

Wear Flip-Flops and Ballerinas

During monsoons, it is advisable to stick to rainy season footwear only, So those heels and velvet sandals can be kept away in your closet. You can flaunt comfortable and trendy footwear options like rubber or PVC flip-flops, sliders, or ballerinas. Pick a colour for the footwear that can complement well with any colour outfit!

Carry Fun Umbrella

An umbrella is of course a functional accessory to protect yourself from rain but it doesn't have to be plain and boring. You can pick a fun and funky umbrella that features a bright colour, attractive print, and style. Carrying an offbeat umbrella can be your everyday funky fashion accessory during monsoons!
