Light and breezy – Linen is a natural fibre derived from the flax plant. Fabrics made from linen allow minimal air entrapment, making them durable and exceptionally hard-wearing. In warm weather, linen clothing offers a subtle cooling effect that enhances the feeling of freshness and cleanliness – making linen the ideal material for hot summer days.
Linen comes with a host of natural benefits: it’s cool against the skin, highly breathable, antibacterial, dirt-repellent, and helps regulate body temperature. Its gentle sheen gives it a refined, elegant look. What’s typical for linen is its tendency to develop small slubs and creases, due to the fibre’s natural lack of elasticity. Linen garments tend to have a relaxed fit – and the wrinkles are part of their effortless charm.
Machine wash linen on a gentle cycle with a light load to minimise deep creasing.
Spin at no more than 600 rpm to help retain some of the fabric’s natural moisture.
Dry in a space with higher humidity to let creases soften naturally. Avoid direct sunlight.
Linen can be ironed at high temperatures, but always do so when the fabric is still slightly damp.
We recommend ironing your linen garments inside out to protect the fabric.
