The Timeless Appeal of Linen: The Ideal Fabric for the Perfect Summer Shirt

When it comes to summer elegance, freshness, and timeless style, one fabric stands out: linen. Used for centuries in Italian tailoring, this natural material is the ultimate summer essential, loved for its breathability, lightness, and refined look.

Why choose a linen shirt?

Linen is a noble, sustainable plant fiber. Its natural structure allows it to absorb moisture and enhance airflow, keeping your skin cool even on the hottest days. This makes it perfect for spring and summer, particularly from May through September.

Finamore 1925's linen shirts are crafted using only the highest quality linen, sourced from premium yarns and tailored with the artisanal expertise that has defined our brand for nearly a century.

When and how to wear linen

Linen isn’t just for casual wear. A white or light blue linen shirt, tailored by Finamore, is perfect even for formal events, evening cocktails, or summer ceremonies.

Pair it with:

• Lightweight cotton trousers for a relaxed yet elegant look.
  
  

• A summer suit for natural sophistication.
  
  

How to care for your linen garments

To ensure longevity and preserve the beauty of your linen shirts:

1. Wash at low temperatures (30°C) preferably by hand or on a gentle cycle.
   
   

2. Avoid tumble drying; let the shirt air dry naturally.
   
   

3. Iron at medium heat while the fabric is still slightly damp.
   
   

4. Store on hangers in a dry place to prevent excessive creasing.
