Khaki linen midi shirt dress with tie belt

A kereskedő leírása

Utilitarian wardrobe, cut from crisp linen Buttoned flap chest pockets, shirt collar, full-length button front, tie belt: this dress borrows its vocabulary from workwear, then renders it in muted khaki linen and cuts it midi-length. The result is no longer utilitarian, but it retains the logic, each detail serves a purpose. The Wearing Experience An adjustable tie waist : the fabric belt passes through loops and tightens wherever you decide. Pockets that really work : two at the chest with buttoned flap, two patch pockets at the hip. Clean armholes : sleeveless, trimmed with a finish that doesn't curl. Linen that stays fresh : it wicks moisture and lets air through, even in full sun. Craftsmanship & Fabric Composition: 50% linen, 25% tencel lyocell, 25% viscose. Tencel lyocell deserves to be distinguished from ordinary viscose: produced from wood pulp in a closed-loop process, where the solvent is recovered and reused, it yields a smoother fibre and greater wet strength. This is precisely the moisture resistance that matters on a summer dress, one you wash often. The khaki is here obtained on a linen base, which explains its irregular depth: linen fibre has a non-uniform cross-section and takes dye slightly unevenly from one thread to another. This is what gives this vibrant colour, which shifts with the light, instead of the flat khaki of a solid cotton. The downside is sensitivity to direct sunlight, to which shade-drying fully responds. Our article on the linen dress for summer details this thermal behaviour. Styling Tips Buttoned and belted, with natural leather flat sandals, the most refined version. Open over a cream tank top and wide linen trousers, worn as a long shirt. With boots and a thin black jumper over the shoulders as the season turns. It joins the other pieces in our linen dresses section. It has a dressier cousin, the long black satin shirt dress with long sleeves . Care for Your Piece Delicate wash at 30°C, by hand preferably, inside out. No bleach, no tumble drying, no dry cleaning. Dry in shade, not in sun: khaki-dyed linen fades faster in direct sunlight than in the washing machine. Hang the dress still damp on a hanger, buttoned two-thirds of the way, creases ease out on their own. Iron with a cool iron on the inside, fabric slightly damp.
