NATURALLY BEAUTIFUL LINEN SHIRTS FOR WOMEN
Transitioning through all seasons are long sleeve linen shirts and short sleeve linen shirts featuring classic style and easy comfort you’ll want to wear day after day…
TRENDING WOMEN’S LINEN SHIRTS
It’s no surprise that linen shirt outfits are popular with both women and men given the wearable nature of quality linen fabrics. But while a linen shirt and shorts outfit is popular summer attire with the guys, they definitely don’t have a monopoly on linen shirts.
Sussan women’s linen shirts are everybody’s wardrobe favourites, featuring a range of designs with sleeve detailing, feminine necklines and relaxed silhouettes for seasonal wear with skirts, pants and shorts.
WEARING YOUR NEW LINEN SHIRT
Linen shirts feature sophisticated simplicity, as easily worn with your favourite pair of jeans or denim shorts as a gorgeous maxi skirt or new season pair of crop pants or culottes.
Depending on the style of the shirt and the hemline, you can wear a linen shirt fully out or half tucked, while a long sleeved linen shirt with buttons can be worn open over a fitted tank or cami with linen shorts for a cool and casual summer look.
As a natural fibre, linen also pairs well with other natural fibres such as Australian cotton clothing. Ways to wear women’s long sleeved linen shirts and short sleeved linen shirts include:
- Pairing the quintessential white linen shirt with just about anything in your wardrobe including denim, with accessories to suit any occasion.
- A black linen shirt steps up to smart casual especially when paired with heels and a skirt you feel fabulous in.
- Linen loungewear shirts deliver that relaxed-feel comfort we want at home.
- Women’s wrap linen tops with long or ¾ sleeves are perfect for work, along with linen jackets.
- ¾ sleeves and hemline ruffles or sleeve ties add a feminine touch to fresh blue linen shirts. Add a lovely pair of dress shorts or linen pants for getting out and about on mild days.
LINEN SHIRTS TO TAKE FROM DAY TO NIGHT
Versatile linen shirts run the whole gamut from casual to smart casual to semi-formal, partly due to the luxurious nature of linen fibres and partly due to the range of designs available in women’s linen shirts.
The ever-popular white linen shirt may not elevate to formal status, but the right design in a black linen shirt can be paired with statement jewellery, heels and a beautiful skirt or dress pants for a formal occasion.
TRENDING STYLES AND COLOURS
White linen is timeless, always fresh and always ready for summer. Lighten up a pair of jeans or denim shorts with a bright white linen shirt left unbuttoned over a singlet or tucked in. Layer them under a blazer for the office. White linen t-shirts can be kept casual or elevated with smart pants for going out.
Coloured linen and print shirts are playful and add interest to your outfit. Style a relaxed light blue blouse with white chino pants or a marigold tee with matching floral pants. Stripe shirts and check shirts are classic prints that pair perfectly with plain pants, shorts and skirts. Our linen pleat v neck tops can be worn with matching linen shorts for a casual resort ensemble while our animal print puff sleeve linen blouse will take you from desk to drinks in no time.

Pure linen and linen blend clothing will last a long time if cared for properly. We’ve put together some helpful tips to keep your linen looking lovely for years to come.
- Wash in mild detergent on a gentle cycle
- Make sure you thoroughly rinse all detergent from the shirt
- Dry white linen in the sun to maintain brightness and coloured linen in the shade
- Iron both sides of white linen clothing and only the reverse side of coloured linen
- Store your linen on hangers in a cool, dark place or in linen garment bags

ARE LINEN SHIRTS COMFORTABLE?
Made from the flax plant, linen is a natural fibre that softens and grows even more comfortable with age. The relaxed fit of linen clothing adds to the comfort level while the highly breathable, low thread count makes women’s linen shirts especially comfortable and appealing to wear in hot or humid climates.
HOW DO YOU WASH LINEN SHIRTS?
Always read the care guide on the label before washing your linen clothing. Women’s linen shirts may be crafted from 100% linen fabric, or they might be a blend with other fibres.
Generally speaking, durable and resilient women’s linen shirts can be machine washed using mild detergent in cold water. Light colours should be separated from dark colours, and linen shirts should be hung immediately out to air dry (never dried in the dryer).
Depending on the design, women’s linen shirts can be worn with carefree, effortless style or ironed while damp to remove wrinkles - IF the label says ironing is appropriate.
