• Another advantage of linen and clothing made from natural fibres, is for women with sensitive skin and those prone to allergic reactions like "prickly heat" in hot weather. For women who suffer from "hot flushes", again 100% linen is the most comfortable answer in warm environments.
• Linen-clothing can last longer because of its characteristics; such as high strength and durability.
• Linen clothing can be washed and dried easily.
• It is one of the lightest weighted fabrics, great to reduce the weight of your holiday suitcase.
• Linen is a natural fibre made from the flax plant. It doesn’t require any pesticides or any additional water other than rain water and every part of the plant is used. Linen fabric is also organic and fully biodegradable which makes it a fantastic option for those who care for the environment.
