Positano Blue Wide Stripe Italian Linen Fabric

$175

A soft striped linen with a beautiful, rustic texture.

This lightweight 15s single-ply plain weave is woven from 100% linen that features a satisfyingly pronounced texture. The irregularity of the texture gives the tonal blue wide stripes a wonderful lived-in look, especially when it’s left to look comfortably rumpled. Though it’s historically been used in many different environments for its insulating properties, we’re all familiar with linen’s fantastic lightness and breathability in hotter climates, and this one is a great option for more casual looks. Pair it with shorts or linen dress pants and espadrilles on steamy summer days.

Recommended Styling: Our Soft President Spread collar, no placket, and Standard buttons make a versatile combination.
