If you’re looking for a classic black linen dress, we have plenty. A timeless piece for any modern woman, it’s great for spring and summer and can easily be styled up or down. Choose a mini or midi black linen dress and pair with natural straw and rattan accessories for a chic beachside look that instantly transports you to a European seaside town. Switch out the black dress for a black linen top and pair with medium blue wash denim and the same accessories and you have the perfect outfit for casual drinks by the water or a day sightseeing.
A white linen dress is fresh and effortless. A perfect choice for a very warm day spent outdoors, white linen will keep you looking clean, comfortable, and chic as the temperature rises. Choose a midi or maxi linen dress for events on boats or in waterfront venues, while a more casual midi dress in white linen should be kept for travelling, beach days, or shopping. Create an all-white look complete with pearl or shell themed jewellery and enjoy a whimsical feel that calls to mind tropical island destinations. Alternatively, if you want to keep the look simple and modern, pair your white linen with black or tan sandals and a crossbody bag.
We also have a range of linen separates, perfect for outdoor events through spring and summer. Tailored linen pants, blouses, blazers, and jumpsuits match together to create luxe yet relaxed looks for any time of day or night. Choose from light and bright shades of white and cream or opt for sunset colours like red, peach, and yellow. We also offer printed linen dresses, the ideal outfit for a romantic dinner date by the water. Simply team with some strappy heels or wedges and statement earrings and you have an effortlessly feminine look that will make you feel beautiful.
Naturally breathable and easy to care for, it makes sense that most of us prefer to wear linen in hot climates and tropical destinations. Linen also takes less energy and water to process than other traditional fabrics, meaning it can be interpreted as a more ‘earth friendly’ choice. We also love its easy-care qualities; durable, and quick to wash and dry; this is the perfect option for travelling. Linen is also one of the few materials that gets better with age. The more you wash and wear linen, the softer it gets. Caring for linen is quite easy but there are certain tricks to get the best of out of this wonder fabric. Always wash in cold water, iron while still damp, and never dry clean or put in the dryer.
