Lower Impact Linen
Linen, AKA, the most breathable, timeless and flattering fabric. We’re obsessed with anything linen at Princess Polly and we know you are too. Our Lower Impact Linen has been a bestseller season after season. These styles are the definition of a capsule wardrobe staple - it’s no wonder they’re all over your FYP and in your wishlist!
From chic linen dresses to laid-back linen pants for women, this fabric is the ultimate go-to for creating cool girl outfits all year round. Whether you’re styling white linen pants with a matching linen shirt for a monochrome moment or pairing denim shorts with a linen vest, the styling options are endless. Let’s talk about why linen deserves to be at the front of your wardrobe.
Why do people prefer linen?
Linen clothing is the perfect combination of comfortable, stylish, and more sustainable. It’s lightweight and breathable, making it the perfect pick for hot summer days and warm nights out. But it’s not just a summer essential - linen outfits transition seamlessly into cooler seasons when layered with cozy knits and outerwear.
Not to mention, linen is part of our Lower Impact range. It requires less water to produce than cotton, making it a lower-impact option for your wardrobe.
How to Wash Linen
Keeping your linen looking fresh? It’s easier than you think.
Cold water is key: Linen thrives with gentle, cold washes. Keep the temp low!
Skip the dryer: Air drying is the way to go. Hang your linen pieces up to dry for that effortless, natural texture. If you need to speed things up, use the dryer on a low setting, but remove items while they’re still slightly damp.
Wrinkle control: Linen and soft wrinkles go hand in hand, but if you prefer a more polished look, a quick steam or warm iron (on the inside of the fabric) will do the trick.
Linen Looks We Love
Ready to build your dream linen wardrobe? Here are some of our fave ways to wear it:
Linen sets: A linen vest paired with matching linen pants? A no-brainer. This set is effortlessly cool and will easily take you from day to night.
Linen shorts and linen shirts: Think vacay vibes, but make it cool girl. A linen button-up worn open over a cropped tank and high-waisted linen shorts is the ultimate everyday look.
White linen pants and linen tops: Perfect for when you want to look put together without spending hours getting ready. Opt for a fitted linen top and wide leg white linen pants for that sleek model off duty vibe.
Linen skirt and an oversized sweater: The perfect trans-seasonal combo. A breathable linen skirt with a chunky knit will always slay - so comfy, so cute and so easy to throw on.
Whether you’re lounging, brunching, or heading out for a night with your friends, linen outfits are the move.
