Summer is a hot time. But this does not mean that all season you need to wear only skirts, dresses, sundresses and shorts. Not all representatives of the fairer sex suit these things. Yes, and situations are different. Therefore, trousers are quite appropriate in a summer wardrobe. The main thing is to choose the right material from which they are made. And also don’t go wrong with the color and style.
Let's take a closer look at how to achieve this.
Fabrics that are not hot in summer
First of all, when buying trousers, you need to pay close attention to the material. The following types of fabrics are most appropriate for a summer wardrobe.
Cotton
This fabric is an undisputed favorite. It is natural, absorbs moisture well and dries quickly. In addition, it is soft enough and does not cause skin irritation.
The only drawback of this material is that it wrinkles quickly and can shrink after washing.
Attention! If your cotton item is brightly colored, be careful when washing it as it may fade if not washed carefully.
It is recommended to do the first wash by turning the trousers inside out. Hot water is not needed, the optimal temperature is 40°.
Silk
An expensive option that is suitable for a festive outfit. This fabric has a cooling effect. In addition, it is incredibly soft and pleasant to the touch.
But what will be less pleasant is that such a thing will have to be painstakingly cared for, used carefully and washed at low temperatures.
Linen
Combines the positive qualities of cotton and silk. It is not as expensive as silk, it is tactilely pleasant, natural and has a cooling effect.
Unlike cotton, linen is not susceptible to fading from exposure to sunlight.
However, it wrinkles quickly and is not elastic enough. A special approach is required when ironing: it is better to do this at high temperature and using the steam function.
Satin
Cotton fabric, which, thanks to a special manufacturing technology, is stronger and more durable. At the same time, the appearance of satin is not inferior to silk.
Reference! For summer clothes, it is better not to use synthetics, as they can cause skin irritation.
How does clothing color relate to coolness?
In order to understand the connection between the color of an outfit and its heating, you should remember the school physics course. After all, we all taught that a dark object heats up faster and more intensely than a lighter one. The same rule applies to clothing. Based on this, colors can be distributed depending on the air temperature.
For the scorching heat
In addition to white, they will help to survive it beige, sand, milky, yellow, light blue. Pastel colors don't get very hot.
Reference! An exception to the rule is the turquoise color, since a person subconsciously associates it with the surface of water and coolness.
On a cloudy day
If the temperature is moderate or the heat is already subsiding, then you can use bright colors: red, green, orange, etc.
For evening
Tones such as black, purple, and brown are best used for evening outings, when the sun disappears behind the horizon and stops burning.
Models and styles for hot weather
Now let's look at the options for trousers that are suitable for a summer wardrobe.
Loose: pajama pants, trumpets, culottes
Such models are made of lightweight material most relevant. They do not restrict movement, provide air circulation and can be combined with a stylish top or be an independent unit.
Shortened: breeches, capris
These pants come in different lengths that range from approximately knee to mid-calf.
Tapered models
Made from thin denim, cotton or linen, these trousers are ideal for office dress codes. Especially if combined with a pastel shade.
With slits
Two-layer models with cuts look good. They allow the body to cool naturally.
For the young
When choosing a suitable variation, you should also take into account the age group. So, for young girls, in addition to traditional styles, it is appropriate to use original, risky models: afghani, with artificial holes, bright prints, etc.
Mature women
For older women, it is better to stick to the traditional style. The main details in such models will be simplicity, austerity, dim colors.
When choosing, do not forget about the combination with your appearance and other elements of the outfit.
