Seersucker is a classic summer fabric – a little bit preppy, a little bit puckered, and a favorite in both fashion and home decor. The name actually derives from Persian, meaning "milk and sugar," which refers to its smooth and textured stripes. So cute, right?
Traditionally, you’ll see seersucker in pastel suits, dresses, and blazers, but this season you’ll see it in earthier tones and checkered patterns. Its charm extends to home decor too, bringing a light and airy feel to your coastal and cottagecore aesthetic. Bonus: seersucker requires minimal ironing and is a highly breathable fabric, making it ideal for warm weather. Here are 19 ways to wear and decorate with seersucker.
