There is no fabric we associate more closely with the summer months than linen. Breathable and chic, it somehow looks better with a little inevitable crumple – and never more so than when thrown over a swimsuit for light lunch at a beach café (insert wistful sight here). It is equally lovely thrown over al fresco tables; gathered at windows as curtains; and even to do the washing up with. Should anyone need further persuasion, it is not only stylish but practical too, being strong, biodegradable, and naturally moth-resistant, However you use yours, these are some of the loveliest linens there are.
