Essential tips for women's travel wear

Riddhi Jain, fashion expert and founder of NeceSera, shares with HT Lifestyle, essential tips and insights to help you curate a travel wardrobe that effortlessly combines comfort and fashion.

1. Fabric-first

Fabric choice goes a long way in making sure you look turned out even after travelling. Imagine a soft cotton shirt that’s been ironed to the T only to look crushed when you reach your destination. That can put a damper on the best of us. Instead, go for fabrics that are breathable, comfortable, and most definitely wrinkle-resistant!

2. Think in layers

While travelling, think of fits that can be layered up or down. Suddenly feeling a little too warm, remove that hoodie to cool things down. Too chilly in-flight? Snuggle with an easy sweatshirt! Layers are key to keeping things comfortable as you never know when temperatures take a turn. Look at fabrics like Supima modal that are great for layering.

3. Pockets always

On-the-go with no pockets is a tragedy. Want to be hands-free but still have a few essentials on hand? Pockets! They are an absolute must-have when choosing travel wear. Pick joggers, hoodies, jackets, and pants that are outfitted with pockets aplenty.

4. Versatility wins

Spontaneous plans, running late, and no time to change before you need to get somewhere? Choose looks that deliver comfort and style and are also versatile enough to carry you through almost any situation. A monotone co-ord that can be styled up, our new mini waffle fabric, and flared pants that look elevated every time are some of our favourites to look out for.
