Frequently Asked Questions
About the Fabric
We use 100% pure linen across every piece, no blends. It comes from a family legacy of weaving, so the quality runs deep. The fabric gets softer with every wash, so it actually improves with wear.
100% pure linen across the entire collection. No synthetic mixes.
That's normal for new linen. It's part of why we recommend a pre-wash before wearing for the first time. After that, it softens up and keeps getting better with every wash.
Linen can shrink slightly with washing, which is fairly standard for the fiber. Pre-washing before you wear it for the first time helps you settle into the true fit early on.
Caring for Your Linen
Caring for Your Linen
Pre-wash new linen before the first wear. After that, machine wash on a gentle cycle in cold or warm water, or hand wash if you prefer. Use a gentle detergent made for natural fabrics, and wash similar colors together.
You can tumble dry on low until just damp, then finish with natural line drying. We'd recommend skipping full machine drying since over-drying can damage the fibers over time.
If you want a smoother finish, iron while the fabric is still slightly damp. Otherwise, air drying naturally gives linen its relaxed, lived-in look, which a lot of people like as is.
Make sure they're completely dry before storing, damp linen can lead to mildew. Avoid storing in plastic packaging or bags, since linen needs to breathe.
A few things to skip: overloading the washing machine (linen needs room and water access), bleach or brightening detergents, abrasive materials in the same wash, and tumble drying for too long.
Sizing & Fit
Our sizes run from XXS to 5XL across most styles, so there's a wide range to choose from.
Check the size chart on each product page before ordering. Since linen has minimal stretch, going with your true size based on the chart works best.
Quality & Craft
Linen is a natural fiber, so small variations in texture or shade between batches are normal. It's part of what makes each piece authentic rather than a flaw.
