Hey Soul readers! How have you all been doing? The most exasperating season is here and only a heavy downpour can rescue us from these insane heatwaves. If you are wondering how you can beat the heat this summer, my suggestion would be to do it in impeccable style! This summer if you want to ace a sassy look that doesn’t compromise on comfort, then you can swear by the S/S collection by Global Desi. Global Desi marks the vivacious celebration of Indian aesthetics with a contemporary twist. From their resplendent dresses to quaint jackets and snazzy bottoms to kurtas that set some serious fusion wear goals. Global Desi founded by ace designer Anita Dongre has been a favourite with both Gen Y as well as seasoned fashionistas.
Summer fashion wardrobe should be all about wearing comfortable fabrics that help you breathe and don’t make you sweaty because of a fabric faux pas. Although there’s a predilection for ditching brighter hues for pastel shades, I feel vibrant colours can be a great mood lifter and add chutzpah to the overall appearance. And guess what? Global Desi Spring/summer line reflects my summer fashion aesthetics too! Hence enter overflowing kurtas, lean palazzos, bouquet of shift dresses in fun prints, crop tops with asymmetrical hemlines, rompers, jumpsuits, shrugs, kurtas with slits, easy-breezy kaftans and apparels with the much on-trend cold-shoulder detailing. From sorbet to sunset hues and tropical to cobalt blue to the ever reliable black and white, the colour palette is quite eclectic, so there is something for every taste. The stallion print looks like the clear winner as it can be spotted on kurtas, crop tops and jumpsuits!
Here goes my Top 5 picks and some quick styling tips for wearing them –
Orange Hakoba Cold Shoulder Dress – It is the ultimate dope this summer. This dress comes in a candy orange shade which makes it all the more wardrobe-worthy this season. In addition to this, the cold shoulder, bishop sleeves accentuated with drawstrings and tassel detailing in lavender, front button, front slit and the hakoba hemline makes it an ideal choice this summer. Pair it up with tan or olive gladiator sandals with tassel detailing, arm cuffs and pom pom earrings to finish off the look.
Mustard Embroidered Swing Top – Throw in this cheerful mustard top that boasts of a ruffled hemline. The criss-cross drawstring detailing at the front accentuates its feminine cut. Team it up with a tie-n-dye sleek maxi skirt with a side slit and be the undaunted bohemian wanderlust!
Floral And Chevron Print Culottes – Although it’s black, the sleeveless overall with the keyhole detailing, side pockets and topped with contrasting floral and chevron prints promises to make you stand out from the crowd. Keep this look simple with a hat, sunnies and jootis!
Mustard Stallion Print Palazzo – Palazzos are a big trend this season and I am totally digging it! This stallion printed palazzo exudes the classic boho-chic vibe. Pair it up with a white off-shoulder crop top and layer it with afghan style neckpieces, a nose-pin and conclude the look with a vivid-toned turban and you are good to go for one of those ancient architecture heritage walks!
Floral Printed Box Pleat Skirt – Any summer closet remains incomplete without a generous dose of florals. The prints on this skirt had me in love on the first sight. Team up this skirt with an aqua blue pussy-bow top or a lace top to tread the chic and feminine route!
