Let me take you to Minori on the Amalfi Coast, with its terraced olive groves, the blue water, golden sand, and aqua beach umbrellas, which beckon you to stay a while. This striped linen is such a cool combination of dark olive, navy, aqua, yellow and white. Whether you imagine a stunning summer dress, wide leg trousers, or chic oversized shirt, you will draw attention. This stripe is confident. If you love stripes and have enough classic navy and white, why not try something a little bolder. It's a quality French Flax and viscose cloth and washes beautifully.
The white stripes might be a tiny bit transparent if you put your hand underneath (in daylight), but when the cloth is around your body as a garment, this always seems to decrease that perception. Select flesh toned undergarments and you will be fine.
For your cloth edit consider: semi-fitted or looser shirts, blouses, tops and tunics; dresses (eg. wrap, fit and flare, tunic, shirt dresses); skirts (eg. wrap, midi, gathered, pleated). It would be great in pants or shorts in summer also.

Cloth Care
We recommend a gentle machine wash or hand washing linen. It is important not to wring the fabric or garment, so if you are handwashing, roll up in a towel to press out excess water. To ensure the long life of a garment, don’t tumble dry as this breaks down the fibres. If you do tumble dry the cloth, then do so on a cooler setting. It is preferable to wash inside out. Wash colours separately. Shake out the wet garment and dry flat (or on a hanger) in the shade. Use a warm/hot iron and spot test. You may need a water spray bottle to get rid of the wrinkles when you are ironing, or just embrace the beautiful crumpled look of the cloth ;-). Linen softens upon wearing and laundering.
