Why Linen Clothes Are Always in Fashion?
With the days getting longer, warmer and brighter, it's time to think about our spring/ summer wardrobe. Whilst we try to keep our clothes going for as long as possible, and avoid fast fashion fads, there are inevitable times when only new clothes will do.
Luckily, linen clothing is always in fashion, which means investing in a great linen piece now will give you excellent cost-per-wear value as it will stay looking beautiful for years. Despite changes in shapes, cuts, lengths and colors, linen fabric itself is always popular. Opting for classic styles in this timeless fabric means you can future-proof your wardrobe, as well as feeling ready for the new season.
But why is linen clothing so enduringly in vogue? We reveal some of the benefits of pure linen clothes in this post.
- Linen clothes are beloved because they are so comfortable. They especially come into their own during the warmer months when as linen allows you to go about your day without worrying about sweating or dampening your clothes. Breathable, comfortable clothes are a must during summer and linen fabric effectively absorbs perspiration, wicking away moisture from your body as well as regulating your temperature. Linen pants, linen shirts and linen dresses are highly popular because of this airy feeling they provide.
- For versatility linen is second to none. It's easy to tailor a stylish piece of linen clothing, and linen is a very absorbent fabric meaning it easily absorbs dyes. Even the simplest-designed piece of linen clothing looks beautiful.
- Linen is a durable fabric and so your linen clothes will last longer than poorer quality fabrics. They can withstand many washes and even get softer over time. Which means you can enjoy your linen dress for several years. For those of us worried about sustainability, this makes linen a great choice for clothing.
- Linen clothes are also really practical when travelling. They take up little room in your luggage and are lightweight to carry. If you need to do laundry on-the-move they can be washed by hand and dry quickly.
- Linen clothing is easy to care for. Garments can be machine washed and tumble dried, and creases are part of the natural charm of linen fabric. So there's no need to iron, which is always a bonus in our view. If you do like to iron your clothes, do this when your linen dress or trousers are still damp.
It's no wonder linen clothes are loved by both men and women. From shirts and tunics to linen pants, there's something for everyone. Linen also makes perfect home wear as it's so lightweight, natural and breathable. Just what you need for relaxing around the house or lounging on a lazy weekend.
There's nothing better for spring and summer than a stylish piece of beautifully cut and perfectly coloured linen clothing. In fact, you'll be spoilt for choice.
