The word seersucker is derived from the Hindi word sirsakar and as a fabric, it was perfect for the hot climate of Colonial India and thence found its way here. Traditionally made in blue and white, I like to mix it up a little. Here's a beautiful fabric made in Italy, by Angelico, that reinvents seersucker in a wool and cotton blend. The material is so fine you can see light through it and is perfect for sunny afternoons. One of the advantages of being puckered is that it's crease resistant. I've designed this jacket with minimal internal structure so its super light and comfortable. Roll on summer.
