Work Wear in Hot Weather

As temperatures soar, the work wardrobe can become something of a challenge. How does one balance professionalism with looser and lighter fabrics? This is a selection of fun but sensible work wear for a hot summer:

Swap heavy layers for lighter ones, such as thin natural textures like silk and light cotton – try to stay away from unnatural fibres, which make you sweat more. If thinner layers are more revealing go for clothes with busy prints, which help to detract the eye and cover up VPL etc.

Adding pops of bright, eye-catching colour also provides a more interesting palette and helps reflect heat instead of being absorbed into the fabric.
