These Are the Best Linen Pieces to Buy for Summer, Starting at $25
When searching for the perfect fabric to keep you both looking and feeling cool in the summer and surrounding warmer months, there's no question that linen is the obvious choice. And this is nothing new, which means that your wardrobe may already be full of flowy pieces in the fashion set's favorite fabric. Or, of course, you could be new to the game. Maybe the proclivity for wrinkling deterred you or you thought great linen is out of your budget, which, by the way, it’s not!
Regardless of which of the aforementioned buckets you fall into, today, I've got something for you because while I do have the classics for our newbies here, every year brands and designers are putting new spins on the material, making pieces you're likely not to already own but sure to want. To see and shop all my chic linen finds for summer at every price point, just keep scrolling.
Tops
If you own just one linen piece, it should be a flowy, white button-down.
This markdown (and print) are hard to pass on.
Don't mind me, I'm just waiting for this to come back in stock in my size.
Jacquemus is a trove of linen options right now, but this top was my favorite piece.
Bottoms
Dresses
Sets
All their pieces are simple but so useul.
The matching shorts are a must.
For dressier summer events, look no further than this polished linen blazer.
I'm obsessed with the button detailing on the pants.
Accessories

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. It was a less expected route, seeing as she was graduating from business school at USC when this all began, but it has turned out to be the best one for her. Fast-forward to 2024, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was an intern starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to classic pieces and neutral basics but will always make an exception for something colorful, printed, or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a good party is dressing up for one. On weekdays, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious for dinner and trying to force her husband to watch Summer House.
