How to wear a linen shirt 

Linen shirts are effortless and comfortable, especially for spring, summer and heading on holiday. Their lightweight, breathable fabric feels like air-con you can wear and they’ll never go out of style.   

Wondering how to wear a linen shirt? Let’s explore, so you can elevate your look with this classic summer staple. 

Effortlessly cool 

For a classic laid-back look, pair a white linen shirt with classic blue jeans. The relaxed fit will have you feeling comfortable and cool all day. Complete your outfit with some loafers for a casual, yet put-together, look. 

Beach vibes 

Heading to the beach? Go bold and bright with an orange linen shirt. Pair it with your favourite swimming costume, some light cotton trousers, tassel earrings and flip-flops and you’re set for anything. It really is that easy. 

Smart and sophisticated 

When you want to dress up without sacrificing comfort, a linen shirt understands the assignment. Go for a darker navy linen shirt paired with tailored trousers (and a blazer or a lightweight cardigan when summer ends) and you’re all set. 

Bold colour blocking 

Linen shirts can be effortlessly stylish when paired with shorts or skirts in matching or contrast colours. Try our loose, flowing cobalt linen shirt with bright jewellery and sandals to complete the look. For more inspiration on how to wear this shirt, watch this video.
