SEERSUCKER SUMMER NIGHTS!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
What is Seersucker?
Seersucker is the quintessential summer fashion of the true southern dandy and vogue-inspired belle. ​The word seersucker is derived from the (Hindi and Urdu) Persian words "shir o shakara" meaning "milk and sugar" referring to the alternating stripes woven into the fabric.
