Even if you are the coolest of all, when it comes to warm weather dressing, it can be tricky trying to find the right pick. Even in the most sun-drenched season, it’s only a matter of having an idea about fashion and knowing what flatters you most. There are pretty and trendy outfits designed for such a harsh weather. 

Hot weather clothing should make you feel the same: cool and safe from the humidity. There is nothing worse than finding that you do not have what to wear on a burning day. Hence, when the weather really takes hold outside, here are a few ideas to help keep out the heat.

There are now many fashionable outfits to choose from that do not make you feel uncomfortable or shabby. Start with the most important warm weather basic: a cool dress, delightful pair of chic shorts with a beautiful blouse or opt for a little strapless dress.

And for men, you can also go for cool trousers, shirts and shorts designed from fabrics and colours that will compliment and save you from the burning weather.

Any outfit with a material that favours warmness is a classic material to wear. Buy them in plenty and in different options. All styles are available in a variety of patterns and colours, from plaid to neon green, so you can coordinate with your other choice of pieces.

When it comes to hot weather dressing—especially for evening events—most people seem to insist on a less-is-more policy that might leave them feeling cool, but not looking particularly stylish.

True, the temperature and humidity levels are spiking, but that does not mean you should throw on a lame look or overly revealing ensemble and call it a day or night. Rather than simply reaching for some boring standby outfit, we urge you to take inspiration from our favourite models from Premier Model Agency.

These lovelies show off some exceptional examples of how to look amazing and weather-appropriate even when it’s sweltering outside. So sit back, grab a cool drink, and get ready to spend some time perusing a few festive after-hours outfits anywhere in Kigali or elsewhere of your choice.

While out and about with friends, you may be a guest at one or more parties. And while you are probably excited about the occasion, you may be anxious about what to wear.

You know any outfit needs to be "rewarding.” But what you wear also needs to be chill-resistant, in case the venue is air-conditioned or the event occurs at night.
