THE BEST OF LINEN: OUR TOP PICKS
By Ayis Stephen-Diver, 8 July 2024
How to look (and feel) cool in the warmer temps? Linen or linen mixes. It's always trending when summer rolls in because not only is it comfy and breathable, but there are just so many linen looks you can create. Off to the beach and need a quick piece to slip on? A linen co-ord wins. Rooftop drinks in the calendar? A linen dress never fails. So without further ado, scroll for the finest linen styles.
POV: you're heading for some al-fresco drinks after a day in the office and you need a look that works for both. Well, this bright red linen set is the answer. Perfect for a smart-casual vibe, you’ll look effortlessly put together – as long as you don’t spill any drinks. Pair with a simple tank and flip flops (the sandal style of the summer, btw) for that relaxed, off-duty feel.

& Other Stories linen cap, £27
The baseball cap is one of 2k24's hottest accessories for good reason. Wear with a tee, jorts and sandals for a daytime-casual look, or up the cool factor by taking inspo from A$AP Rocky, Rihanna and Hailey Bieber, and add a headscarf over the top.
