With the monsoon done with, stow away your short dresses and rubber slippers for a rainy day. The cotton (80 per cent) wraparound dresses we chanced upon make for the ideal outfit for breezy evenings. The easy-to-secure, semi-layered option comes with a conveniently placed belt, though you will have to adjust it from inside to ensure the collar doesn’t arch up from one side. There’s also a button on the inside to secure the outfit, though we wish it wasn’t plastic. It works as office wear as well as for a walk down Marine Drive.

It’s too humid to throw on a leather jacket, even if it’s a faux mix. But the fall calls for you to throw on a light jacket or cape. While the former is passé and the market is brimming with basic denim options, this funky midi and front knot button-down cotton shrug-shirt is perfect for the in-between season. Both pieces are comfortable; besides, you won’t need much space to store the shrug-shirt if you remove it. It’s also ideal for a day and evening look. We love the print behind the jacket, though you might have to hunt for one without spelling errors.

Cost Rs1,500
