Women's Linen Coats and Jackets

Look Sharp and Stylish With Women's Linen Coats and Jackets

Relaxed or formal, casual or smart, a ladies linen jacket can suit just about every occasion. Often seen in neutral colours, these coats and jackets use the breathable qualities of this lightweight fabric to provide coverage on chilly days. The selection of women's linen coats and jackets available at eBay includes all kinds of styles and colours.

Linen is a natural fibre which comes from the flax plant. One of the oldest fabrics used by man, it has often been associated with summer thanks to its cooling properties. Durable and absorbent, linen makes a great material for women's blazers, jackets and coats. Linen is known for its slightly rumpled appearance, as it creases easily. This is often used as a style feature, with the relaxed appearance of the fabric giving your jacket a casual look.

Linen is a frequently used fabric that can be turned into any number of different types of garment. There are plenty of styles of jacket available. These include:

• Women's linen blazers are common, particularly in shades of black, grey, navy, cream, or white. They combine a relaxed fabric with smart tailored lines.
• Ladies linen utility jackets are frequently used outdoors, thanks to the durable nature of the fabric.
• Women's linen coats are often unlined or partially lined, so are great for spring, autumn, and seasonal changes.
• Loose, flowing linen waterfall jackets and cardigans are another common choice, inspired by Lagenlook trends.

Of course, always check the care label for each individual garment. However, there are some standard pieces of advice when it comes to looking after your linen clothes. Never overload the washing machine, as your linen jacket could get twisted out of shape. To avoid creases, iron your garment when it's still slightly damp. Don't be alarmed if it smells like straw when it's being ironed. This is natural for a fibre that comes from a plant.

Linen is a versatile fabric that can be dressed up or down, depending on the occasion. A sharply tailored ladies linen blazer is perfectly suitable for the office, while a jacket from the same fabric with 3/4 sleeves will work with jeans for the weekend. Linen jackets are not as warm as other alternatives, so they make a great choice when the weather is mild or changeable.
