When the summer humidity sets in, we tend to search aimlessly through our closets wondering what we could wear in the extreme heat. And, if the rising temperatures and downpours during monsoon season aren’t bad enough, it is even worse if your clothing doesn’t breathe or is too heavy for the sticky weather. Here you will find the best summer Korean fashion trends for 2021 and some fashion tips for dressing during the monsoon season in Korea.
Light-weight Fabrics
Linen and cotton the perfect fabrics when choosing different looks to beat the heat. Lightweight and loose, these universally flattering materials can transition from day-to-night effortlessly without you having to sacrifice style over comfort.
Light Colors
As we all may know by now, light colored clothing reflects light (aka the sun) and dark colors absorb it. So, when you are planning to be outside in the smoldering temperatures, it is best to choose light and neutral colors to stay cool. Choose a classic white or a monochromatic beige to create the ultimate summer chic look.
Crop Tops
The crop top is such a great summer staple and the perfect way to stay cool with minimal effort. Perfect for hot days with their mini style and terrific for summer because you don’t have to layer up too much. The crop top is best when worn with high-waisted clothing pieces or layered over dresses.
Bermuda Shorts
Chic and comfortable, the Bermuda short serves the purpose of being functional yet fashionable when the humidity rises, thanks to the loose fit. You can choose to layer these with a lightweight tee or a matching cropped blazer to maximize the cool factor.
Loose Fitting
Flowing garments allows air circulation allowing your skin to breathe and cool down when you are out in the heat. A light and airy dress or oversized tee is the perfect choice to go-with-the-flow and look effortlessly chic.
