5 Linen Looks for Effortless Summer Style

Here at Monsoon, we’re proud to support I LOVE LINEN – a UK-wide campaign celebrating the sustainable production of linen and flax in Europe. To pay tribute to the world’s oldest, most innovative and greenest fabric, why we’ve put together five linen looks made for the modern woman, all designed for effortless summer style.

 

1. Dress Down

 

Chic and easy to wear, the linen dress is a must-have in any capsule collection. This season, forgo classic whites for more modern incarnations – such as this striped style – that lend themselves well to all settings, from city breaks to sun-drenched beaches. Finish with pared-back accessories.

 

2. Trail Blazer

 

The linen blazer is the perfect way to transition from work to weekend in warm weather, offering effortlessly smart styling without weighing you down. Stick to a neutral grey hue that’ll work with almost anything in your wardrobe, and wear it with a simple blouse or tee, blue denim and wedges for classic cool.  

 

3. Separate Ways

 

Linen separates make light work of holiday dressing, whether worn together or matched with other pieces in your suitcase selection. Printed with soft blue stripes, this crisp linen tee will work equally as well with a midi skirt as it does with white denim or shorts, making it a versatile addition to your getaway wardrobe.

 

4. Short Story

 

Linen shorts offer a somewhat smarter alternative to their denim counterparts, as well as keeping you considerably cooler as temperatures rise. Style them for the city with a tucked-in blouse and flats, making them feel more weekend-appropriate with a tonal striped tee, sandals and a mustard bag for a pop of colour.

 

5. Let Loose

 

Loose-fitting silhouettes are able to enhance the breathable comfort of linen, making them viable wardrobe options for more unpredictable days. A soft linen-blend knit provides the perfect style solution for overcast summer skies, while wide-leg culottes will ensure you’re suitably prepared for when the sun eventually does makes an appearance.
