Summer linen fabric is comfy and effortless to wear because of its light nature, which is great for those days when the sun would otherwise sap all your energy. Much like cotton, it is also very breathable and will keep you feeling refreshed no matter how long the day feels. Better yet, it is also easy to wash and dry, making it a very adaptable fabric, though bear in mind that linen is often prone to creasing, also known as “desirable wrinkles”.

Linen is also highly absorbent, gaining up to 20% of its dry weight in moisture without feeling damp to the touch.
