HOW TO DRESS IN A TROPICAL CLIMATE
Fashion differs from culture to culture, from country to country and of course Tropical climate brings so much diversity into Fashion.
So, what to do about the tropical climate?
Buy or sew clothes only from natural fabrics.
Why?
Our skin is our second respiratory organ after our lungs. In conditions of heat, it is essential that it breathe. This is only possible when using natural fabrics in clothing - cotton, linen, silk, hemp, as well as mixtures. It is also impossible to keep silent about the fact that modern environmental studies are disappointing. For more information how disastrous plastic clothes are read the following article: How plastic clothes create plastic water.
Layered and loose-fitting clothing is great for cooling the body in hot and sunny weather.
How does that work?
By wearing loose-fitting clothing, you create an internal volume of air between your body and the environment. And, as you know, the air itself is an excellent thermal insulation for the body. You are probably used to thinking about layering in clothes for the cold winter season, but this is also true for the heat.
Cultural codes and local aesthetics and how to fit into them.
This is really interesting. On the one hand, it is, of course, stupid to come to live in Asia and dress the same as at home. Not only because these clothes would be hot and uncomfortable, but also because it would be nice to fit some elements of the local cultural code into your image, demonstrating on an external level your knowledge and respect for local cultural traditions.
The first thing that catches your eye in Asian fashion is a different attitude towards sexuality in clothing. Here they do not like tight-fitting silhouette solutions. (Oh, how embarrassed I was at the beginning of my stay here!) But nothing surprising. After all, Asian men and women are most often petite. Layering and unusual proportions of volumes and lengths are very suitable for them.
This is also why I`ve created this fusion of western fashion with Asian national patterns and attributes. This is an international fusion that marries two different parts of the planet and creates an invisible web of those who know, who understand, who are in the flow internally and then externally.
Handmade clothes gives you a wonderful feeling of uniqueness. What can be better than wearing a piece of art?
Ready-to-wear is tailored to the Asian body type.
- Most of the clothes in Asia are made for an Asian body type.
- As we know, Asian women and men are in most cases smaller and thinner, and clothes are mostly made for this type of body.
- Being a westerner may make you want to sew clothes on-measure as it`s really hard to find out your size in the city.
This what we are creating. Loose fit models that are good to wear in Asia in really hot weather as well as in Europe when it`s spring, summer, or autumn.
