As the weather improves and Spring feels well underway we thought we'd introduce you to some of our new Spring/Summer season's linen dresses. We're pretty certain that amongst these you'll find your new favourite summer dress. Layer up while there's still a bit of a chill in the air, and wear on its own with sandals and shades once temperatures start to rise. Your summer wardrobe needs to be flexible: it needs to work for a whole range of occasions (from city breaks to long evening walks), and it needs to be easy to care for. We love low-maintenance linen, not just for how it looks, but also for the way it makes us feel. Light, fresh and naturally beautiful.
Linen will keep you cool as it helps regulate body temperature and it wicks away moisture, keeping you dry and comfortable too. Perfect if you suffer sudden sweats or find it difficult to find the right balance between warmth and overheating. Our linen dresses are great for travelling too as they are lightweight and, thanks to linen's inherent charming crinkles, there's no need to iron. Simply roll yours up, along with your other minimalist packing contents (or piles of stuff, if minimalism isn't your thing), and you're good to go.
So, here's our edit of the loveliest linen dresses for Spring and Summer. Which one will you fall in love with?
Adel Dress in White Windowpane
We've got all the feels for this super-cute summer dress. It's floaty yet flattering and cut just below the knee, making it the perfect all-rounder. The little tucks below the waist keep things neat, and the high neck lends a smarter feel. Whether you're shopping with friends or picnicking on the beach, this is one of those dresses you can just throw on and it always looks amazing. We plan to wear ours with these cork-soled sandals and this straw hat.
Adel Dress in Sea Blue
The same gorgeous cut as the white version, and the same effortlessly stylish look. But in a pop of glorious cobalt-blue colour. Swish your way around the office, float across a crowded party or climb up into the hills - whatever you do, this dress will bring brightness and freshness to every situation. Pair it with these pumps and a neat cardigan for a seamless seasonal transition.
Alice dress in Navy Stripe
If you like your summer dresses a bit shorter, then meet the adorable Alice linen dress. Cut just above the knee and with two subtle pockets, this is an unfussy, pretty dress that oozes understated elegance. Work it with a turtleneck underneath while the weather's warming up, and finish with a summery linen tote bag.
And, while we're on gorgeous Spring/Summer clothing don't forget the must-have, versatile summer wardrobe accessory: the linen scarf. Use as a cover-up in the sun, or to keep cosy on a summer's evening outdoors. Our linen scarves are quietly fabulous, and will get softer with each wash.
Over the next few weeks we'll showcase some more of our beautiful new clothing range, including one new style that we are VERY excited about. Let's just say, fans of overalls and jumpsuits, stay tuned...
