As I get prematurely nostalgic about summer’s end, allow me to shine a light on one of the most summer-y of summer fabrics.

Seersucker is a lightweight, all-cotton puckered fabric that’s usually striped, woven in such a way that some threads bunch together, giving the fabric its distinctive, classily-wrinkled (yes, that’s a thing) look. The result: fabric is held away from the skin when worn, allowing for better air circulation and heat dissipation.

Translation: you’re cool even in 100-degree August days. It also means that there’s no need to iron your seersucker when pulling it from the dryer (score).

Below, three ways to try this nautical pattern:
