For women:

* Monsoon colour: Always go for bright colours. Vibrant hues will make you stand out in this dull and gloomy weather and add a fun element to this monsoon.

* Length issues: Mid-length colourful dresses are a great choice during monsoon to get rid of muddy hems and look trendy at the same time.

* Accessories funda: Accessorise with some bright neon coloured waterproof bags, raincoats. Accessorise yourself with a nice printed scarf which might even protect you from unalarmed drizzles or humidity.

* Flip flop route: Opt for colourful and funky flip-flops and peep -toes and avoid fancy shoes.

For Men:

* The science of fit: Loose fit tees to avoid irk, when wet is advisable for better breathability and to look stylish.
