With its sticky heat and hot breeze, you may think that summer is the time to tuck away your Indian wear. Not when it's the summer-ready kind, however. Donning synthetic fabrics and stifling silhouettes is a complete no-no during this season but for the right way to go desi, turn to Bollywood. Although it's just the turn of the season, the stars are looking set for summer with the right kind of traditional wear and styling tricks.
