Linen has a long history of admirers. Right now, however, many are rediscovering this wonderful fabric. It is appearing on runways, in resort collections, and even on the streets of the cities around the world. Italian linen in particular is currently having a boom. There is something very authentic about linen. It gets wrinkles in, it softens up the more you wear it, and with time it only gets more beautiful. Women’s Italian linen dresses are characterized by very fine quality of fabric and by very precise cuts, very fancy details which create a perfect silhouette and make you look very beautiful. We have curated a range of Italian-made Women's Dresses made from linen in our Women's Dresses collection at Estell Boutique. Why Women's Italian Linen Dresses Keep Winning Every Season Linen has been produced in Italy for generations and has been fine-tuned to the highest quality. When choosing a linen dress “Made in Italy,” you can be sure that the utmost care has been taken in cutting, sewing, and finishing the fabric. You will immediately notice the soft drape of the fabric and the clean seams. Above all, however, the dress will follow the contours of your body to create the most beautiful of silhouettes that will remain unchanged throughout the day. Italian linen dresses are also very flexible. They are very breathable in warm weather, ideal for traveling because they are light and fold well. You can wear an Italian linen dress for a casual coffee in the morning and then go to dinner in the evening. All you need to do is change your shoes. Linen comes from the flax plant. It requires very little water to grow, and few treatments are needed to process it. Therefore, for women who are concerned about how their clothing is made, linen is an excellent choice. A good quality linen dress is one that can be worn frequently for many years. These high-quality Made in Italy garments can be paired with whatever you want, to go out or to stay home. They are the perfect clothing items to wear all year round and are rarely out of fashion, even though the trends change from year to year. The Linen Trends Shaping Women's Italian Linen Dresses Right Now Linen trends for women’s Italian linen dresses for this year have mostly concentrated on developing an already excellent product. Bias cuts are back. Cutting linen on the bias means that the fabric will follow the contours of the body to create a smooth, elongated line. This is something that is more noticeable when the person is moving than when they are standing still and are showing off the dress on a mannequin. Maxi length continues to be a staple of linen dresses, particularly those without sleeves. The other style that is gaining ground is the knee-length A-line linen dress that is easy to wear on a daily basis. Neutral tones like black, grey and navy sit alongside brighter colors such as red and green. Because linen is garment-dyed, you will see some color variation from dress to dress. We have carefully considered the hem of the linen dresses to ensure a classy and elegant look combined with supreme comfort. From our relaxed style maxi dresses to our shorter knee-length styles, we have a style to suit every occasion. The dresses will also be perfectly dimensioned: with waists, beautifully tailored fitted bodices and with nice smart pockets. The clothes will be flattering for any woman of any age or any body type – no longer a specialty item. Women's Italian Linen Dresses We Love From Our Collection Each of these styles showcases the trends in women’s linen clothing while highlighting the qualities of Italian linen. Italian Linen Maxi Tank Dress – Bias Cut The Italian Linen Maxi Tank Dress – Bias Cut is a lightweight, easy travel dress made in Italy from 100% linen. The bias cut allows the linen to flow and drape around the body. The sleeveless tank neckline is modern and clean, and the maxi length creates a long and flowing silhouette. The dress is lightweight and breathable and perfect for warm days. The Italian Linen Maxi Tank Dress – Bias Cut is available in black and grey. Note that this dress runs small, so we recommend ordering a size up. Italian Linen Women's Dress The Italian Linen Women's Dress is often referred to as the MAGIC dress. It's shaped to flatter most body types. Created and produced in Italy, the Italian Linen Women's Dress features a form-fitting bodice with a cotton rib back and waist inset, front pockets, and a hi-low hemline. Garment-dyed colors vary slightly from garment to garment, giving each dress its own personality. Wear it up or wear it down. This Italian linen dress is suitable for about any occasion – go to dinner, go out on the town, wear to work, or just go to the beach. Made in Italy Linen A-Line Stretch Sundress This knee-length dress is a beautiful combination of the natural breathability of linen and the flexibility of stretch fibers, for a garment that allows for movement while keeping its sleek form throughout the day. Its softly structured silhouette creates a feminine A-line silhouette that hugs the body gently to create a flattering, comfortable shape. Styling Women's Italian Linen Dresses Beyond Summer You don’t have to put away your favorite Italian linen dresses for summer in July. In Southern California’s mild autumn weather, you can still wear them every day. Add a light jacket or fine knit cardigan over your sleeveless linen maxi for cool morning days. The soft knit against crisp linen is a beautiful contrast and so intentionally done. Wear a black or navy dress for a night out and pair with sandals or heels and a structured handbag and simple jewelry. The simple refined dress is perfect for an evening out and looks great on women of all ages. Pair your linen dresses for weekend adventures with sneakers or flat shoes such as ballet flats, to take your comfortable travel dress into casual evening events, or go for a night out on town by adding some heels! You can also wear your travel linen dresses for sightseeing, for dinner, etc. We recommend taking two colors of dresses: neutral colored for everyday wear and colorful for more fun events.
