Linen Clothing

Linen is most commonly thought of as part of the Summer wardrobe because it can be lightweight, cream-colored and airy. However, it should probably make its way into the Winter wardrobe, too. As linen is like a second skin, it retains heat in the cold. If you’re still not convinced, here’s some more fun facts about the benefits of linen clothing. Linen fibers are actually hypoallergenic! This, on top of them having natural anti-bacterial properties means that you can get up and face whatever the world throws at you. Your skin will be very grateful for your use of linen fabrics because it’s natural PH balance helps to soften and preserve the skin. Not to mention the fact that linen has high porous abilities making it feel soft and dry even around moisture. It has even been found in a cave in Georgia to be around 36,000 years old. So, it really is true when they say trends come back around! But, moving onto the fun stuff: how are you going to wear your linen clothing from New Zealand?
