Linen clothing has been cherished by many fashion girls for a good reason. It’s a dream to wear and the perfect fabric for creating relaxed yet stylish looks.
Beyond its wearability, the material is sustainable. Derived from flax plants, linen is easy to grow, requires little water and is biodegradable. Once sourced, it’s durable, resilient, and only gets better with time.
Linen is also one of the most travel-friendly fabrics around thanks to how light it is, making it easy to stuff into a suitcase without adding much weight. And while it’s not inherently wrinkle-resistant, that’s part of its charm–the casual creases only add to linen’s laid-back appeal.
Wondering which brand is best for linen? Check out our picks as we’ve rounded up a few of our favorite feel-good linen staples worth adding to your wardrobe.
Whether or not you find yourself at a resort, invite that same energy by wearing one of Araw’s elegant linen dresses. We adore the details of each garment: unique cuts, timeless colors and playful ties make for the long-lasting statement piece.
