When Is It Appropriate To Wear Linen?
It is a constant struggle that many women (and men) have all year round and finally we can get some answers. When is the right time of the year to wear linen?
It is one of the nicest, yet complicated fabrics in the wholesale fashion apparel world. The biggest factor to decide when it’s right for you to wear linen is the climate in your area. Linen is a fabulous fabric to have in your closet, unfortunately it can and will wrinkle easily. So it is a big no-no to wear linen in humidity. So for all of you in the Midwest and south who want to wear it in the heart of summer, it may be a no go. However, linen can be worn through out Arizona, California and New Mexico year round due to the low humidity in these areas.
A good tip to keep in mind when buying and wearing linen is that solids usually look the best. Wearing printed linen may look too busy and take away from the beauty of the piece you’re wearing.
While traveling with linen there are some major points to keep in mind. Linen will wrinkle so you need to pack your clothes with care. To keep linen as wrinkle free as possible stuff each arm and leg hole with tissue paper and cover each piece with a plastic dry cleaner bag. The linen items should be the last items to be in your suitcase, that way they will have less time to wrinkle.
Caring for your linens at home or on vacation can be done very easily. The easiest way to go about it is to bring it to the dry cleaners or have your concierge do it for you. Yes, it may cost you a little but it will keep your clothes lasting. Some of your linen pieces might have care instructions that actually allow you to wash them at home, so check the label before you make your purchase.
