Stay Cool And Sleep Better: The Lightweight Quilts Making Indian Summers Cosier

Every Indian summer brings its set of challenges, power cuts, muggy nights and the never-ending hunt for a cool, comfortable spot to sleep. Heavy blankets are out. This year, families are switching to a better option: lightweight summer quilts. These aren't just practical, they're also stylish, breathable, and designed to keep you cool all night. Why are these quilts suitable? Well, to start with, they have exceptional breathability that prevents heat from getting trapped, helping to keep you cool and comfortable. And then they offer optimal temperature regulation as they provide just enough coverage to offer a sense of coziness without adding excessive warmth.

The Summer Quilt Revolution: What's Different Now?

Goodbye to clunky, suffocating bedding that traps heat. Today's summer quilts focus on breathability, lightweight comfort and soft touch, all at prices that won't make your wallet sweat. Unlike regular blankets, these quilts use fine cotton or microfibre with low GSM (grams per square metre), meaning they feel airy yet cosy. And they aren't just practical. Fresh patterns and trendy colours make them a stylish addition to your bedroom. Even better, many are machine washable, so no more trips to the dry cleaner every time there's a spilt cup of chai.
