Have you ever wondered what the best fabrics are to wear when the temperatures start to rise? The change in weather means we have to completely change our layers and their thickness.
With the arrival of spring, it's essential to choose fabrics that breathe and retain heat. These characteristics help regulate body temperature, preventing excessive sweating and helping the little ones in your home stay as comfortable as possible.
But what fabrics are the most suitable? Today on Doña Carmen's blog, we bring you the best fabrics for spring and summer.
Cotton
This natural fiber is our best ally when it comes to dressing during the hottest months of the year. Fabrics made from cotton allow the skin to breathe, as air passes through the fibers without any problems. This proper ventilation prevents sweating and the potential for skin fungus.
If our children have any type of allergy or have occasionally suffered from skin breakouts, this is the best fabric for them. This is because cotton is completely hypoallergenic , which helps prevent the risk of irritation, itching, and infection.
Cotton fibers are also incredibly versatile, as they can be woven and braided in many different ways, creating a wide variety of products. This is why we at Doña Carmen use cotton in almost all of our spring-summer collections , as we love all the possibilities this natural fiber offers.
Discover our cotton knitwear, such as the jacket, sweater, and romper from the Pluto collection , which will become your best allies for the first days of spring when temperatures are not yet too high.
Linen
It's the other quintessential fabric for the warmer months . Like cotton, it's a natural fiber extracted from the stem of the flax plant. It's one of the oldest fibers, especially used in ancient Egypt.
Linen fibers, being of plant origin, also allow for complete breathability due to their high absorption capacity. They also allow air to pass through, helping to regulate skin temperature. They are also notable for their comfort and lightness .
Furthermore, this material can be mixed with other fabrics and fibers, allowing you to play with its texture and softness. Its distinctiveness is such that it can be used to create everything from summer shoes to more special dresses and pants for celebrations and ceremonies.
At Doña Carmen, you'll find beautiful linen garments designed for both everyday wear and special occasions. Don't forget to visit our footwear section, where you'll find Mary Janes, bluchers, and sneakers made with this versatile fabric.
The only drawback of this material is that it wrinkles easily, which makes maintenance somewhat more complicated. However, its freshness and comfort mean that creases are not a problem at all.
Although there are synthetic fabrics that can also be thin and breathable, at Doña Carmen we recommend choosing natural and eco-friendly options to dress your little ones. This way, they'll become aware of the importance of caring for the environment with small details like this.
We're looking forward to the warmer weather so we can see all your little ones wearing the latest creations we've prepared for this year. Did you enjoy our post on the best fabrics for spring? We'll read your comments.
