Office Wear for Humid Indian Cities (No More Sticky Shirts!)

Step out looking crisp, reach office looking like a samosa wrapper? Humidity is the ultimate fashion villain.

Here’s how to survive summer workdays without sweat stains, frizz, or that ‘damp shirt smell’ (yes, Stylebuddy can help).

For Men: The Sweat-Proof Formula

1. Fabric is Your First Defense

Wear:

Linen-cotton blends (FabIndia, Blackberrys Lite)

Microfiber shirts (Van Heusen Travelite)

Avoid: Pure polyester (traps heat).

2. The ‘Two Shirt’ Hack

Wear a bamboo undershirt (wicks sweat) under your formal shirt.

Pro move: Keep a spare shirt at your desk (rolled in a moisture-proof bag).


3. Footwear That Doesn’t Stink

Wear:

Perforated leather loafers (Bata Comfit)

Anti-microbial socks (Jockey StayCool)


 For Women: Humidity-Proof Elegance

1. Ditch the Silks, Embrace These

Wear:

Chiffon or georgette sarees (wrinkle-resistant)

Wrap dresses (H&M’s linen range)

2. Makeup That Stays Put

Primer: Lakmé Absolute Blur Perfect

Hack: Use blotting papers (stash in your laptop bag).

3. Hairstyles That Beat the Frizz

Try: Low buns with edge control gel (Streax Pro)

Avoid: Open hair (unless you love the "just electrocuted" look).
