What Is Linen?

Linen is a natural fabric made from the fibers of the flax plant, known for its strength, breathability, and texture. Its crisp, cool feel and moisture-wicking properties make it an ideal fabric for warm-weather clothing such as summer dresses, shirts, and pants, as well as home textiles like tablecloths and bedding. Linen is highly absorbent and dries quickly, making it comfortable to wear in hot and humid conditions. Over time, linen fibers become softer with each wash and wear, yet maintain its durability and signature texture. Available in multiple stock colors and available for custom dye with low MOQs.

How to Wash Linen

Linen can be gentle machine washed at up to 30C with similar colors, we recommend cold wash to avoid shrinkage of the natural fibers. Line dry away from direct sunlight to avoid fading and cool iron inside out or use a garment steamer to reduce wrinkles. Do not soak, wring, rub, bleach or tumble dry. Linen can be dry cleaned if required.

How to Care For Linen

Hang or gently fold to store linen garments away from sunlight, as prolonged sunlight may cause fabric damage or discolouration.
