9 of our favourite linen shirts to freshen up your summer wardrobe
A warm weather must-have for keeping cool and looking stylish.
Linen shirts for women are everywhere right now, and it's not hard to see why. While they are often an investment piece, linen shirts have become increasingly affordable. Their popularity has meant high street brands, as well as luxury, are now producing their own, and you can also find linen blend options which are more economical than pure linen shirts.
The best thing about any kind of linen shirt, however, is that it's easy to wear and super versatile. Linen adds a fresh and classic element to any outfit, whether you're headed to the beach, in the office or out for drinks. You can also keep cool but stay looking stylish in the warm weather thanks to the breathable material.
While nothing quite beats a classic, crisp white linen shirt, there are plenty of other colours and designs available which more than hold their own.
Whether you prefer bolder hues such as pink and navy or perhaps patterns such as stripes and spots, we've got an option for you. Some shirts offer a loose, relaxed fit while others are slightly more structured. You can also find linen shirt dresses which are a modern take on the traditional wardrobe staple.
Here, we pull together all of our favourite options from across the high street, with picks from the likes of Anthropologie, Boden, John Lewis and Hush - plus many more.
