What do you do when the sun’s out and frying you up as if you’re an egg? Dorn yourself in linen and keep cool. The fabric may be a task to iron and crease soon, but there’s nothing that can keep you as cool as linen can. Plus, since it's a more sustainable option, why not try and be a bit more eco-friendly too! Besides, it does last longer than cotton, though slightly more expensive. 

We scouted for brands that you can shop linen wear from and continue to stay as cool as a cucumber even when the temperatures rise outside.

Linen Trail

A 100% pure linen brand for men and women, Linen Trail offers a variety of apparel for everyday wear, and for special occasions too. From formal and casual shirts and trousers for men, pure linen trousers for women to comfortable linen kurtas for men and women, and also linen dresses for women - Linen Trail’s range is endless. We also love the brand for its subdued colours, think beige, brown, white, black, and more. You will find brighter-coloured kurtas (blues and bright pinks!), ideal for casual, festive wear.

The Black Cotton Linen Pleated Dress is definitely worth adding to your weekend wardrobe.
