10 sweat-wicking clothing items to keep you cool and dry this summer

There is no way around it: When the weather heats up, sweat starts dripping. Oftentimes, this sweltering season leaves us desperate to find clothing that not only keeps us cool but also keeps the sweat from pooling. After all, no one wants to be drenched in sweat by mid-afternoon. The problem is we often only associate sweat-wicking clothing with activewear. You know, gym shorts, leggings, and workout tops. No shade to those tried and true items (we’re thankful for them keeping us dry during hot yoga and cycling sessions), but sometimes we’d like to look cute and be sweat-free outside of the gym.

That’s why we took some of the guesswork out of summer clothes shopping and found these items that are made of sweat-wicking material but don’t necessarily look like your typical gym clothes. From dresses to skorts to decidedly cute tops, each of these items contains sweat-wicking technology to banish moisture from the fabric and keep you dry. Bye, bye pit stains.

Made with Lululemon’s buttery soft Nulu fabric, this lightweight dress was made for women on the move. In addition to its sweat-wicking capabilities that will keep pesky boob sweat away, this relaxed dress contains Lycra (the fabric often used in gymnastic uniforms) for a form-fitting stretch that works with your body’s natural movement. We love that it looks just as trendy with a pair of sneakers as it does with some strappy sandals.
