What should I wear in the monsoon in India?

Quick-drying fabrics and darker colours. Polyester blends, rayon and light synthetics dry far faster than cotton or denim, and dark or printed fabric hides splashes. Pick ankle-length or cropped trousers that do not drag through puddles, waterproof sandals instead of leather, and keep a light rain jacket in your bag. Avoid white, suede, silk and anything heavy that takes a day to dry indoors.
