10 Elevated Linen Outfits You’ll Wear At Home Or Away
By Sarah Macken
Lean on linen for a foolproof look. Here’s how to wear it now …
Keep it simple with a white linen co-ord worn with polished, two-tone flats rather than sandals.
A pair of linen striped shorts is the ultimate workhorse buy. Team them with everything from white T-shirts to puff-sleeve blouses.
It’s not just about neutral colours: look to summer-perfect shades such as butter yellow or tomato red.
Speaking of statement blouses, a white puff-sleeve blouse is the perfect accompaniment to shorts or of-the-moment capri trousers.
How are the style set wearing linen now? Co-ords have taken on a dramatic feel: tunic tops have nipped-in waists, while those in the know are shortening their trouser hems to graze the ankle for a bespoke look. See style influencer Monikh in this two-piece by Faithfull the Brand.
Rethink white linen trousers and instead opt for beige ones. Just add a basket bag and a pair of fancy flip-flops.
Yes, linen is loose and comfortable, but it can still make for a dressed up outfit. We love how this look teams a waistcoat (by Australian brand Dissh) with a pair of tailored linen shorts. Top it off with a structured, statement bag for added sleekness.
Switch things up with a linen rugby shirt: Belfast-based specialists Kindred of Ireland are a go-to for special pieces made from beetled Irish linen.
It’s all about the extras: a top with trending tie-details elevates a timeless outfit.
Lastly, don’t forget the appeal of linen tailoring. A white tailored linen waistcoat and trousers is a cooling warm weather look that will always look striking.
