Linen Weather Is Upon Us—I Found the 45 Best Pieces Out There Right Now
Unlike some of the more out-there trends and fashion favorites we've covered at Who What Wear, the topic of today's roundup needs no explanation. Linen and warm weather go together like peanut butter and jelly, and the classic fabric is truly one of the things I most look forward to wearing when spring and summer roll around. Of course, as with most essentials, the options are abundant, and that can feel overwhelming to navigate. Where to spend? Where to splurge? What are the coolest silhouettes in pants, skirts, and shorts right now? Do I go bold or stick to neutrals?
Well, I think I can help. While I can't make every decision for you, I can narrow the pool a bit. Below, you'll find my edit of the 45 best linen fashion items out there right now at every price point, from H&M finds to Net-a-Porter favorites and everything in between. This is all you need to see if you're in the market for a new piece this season, I promise.

Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here at Who What Wear, and she is currently Editor-at-Large. Upon joining, she was a senior about to graduate from business school at USC. Fast-forward to 2025, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was just starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content and her Trust Me—Buy This newsletter. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to neutral, classic pieces but will always make an exception for something colorful or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a party is dressing up for one. On her downtime, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious and trying to force her husband to watch Summer House.
