Cotton, made in India

I have discovered that the cotton clothing that I like the most -- lightweight, not clingy, great for the summer -- is always made in India. Or the clothing was, at any rate, that's what it says on the tag. Is this a particular type of cotton? Where can I find more? All of these clothes have come from thrift shops, picked out because they were nice and light, and then it dawned on me they were all made in India.
