Linen is a relaxed yet elegant fabric, perfect for the warmer weather. It’s considered to be the strongest of all natural fibres and will last for many seasons to come, making it a perfect addition to any conscious, capsule wardrobe. Moreover, as linen fibres are hollow, they allow more airflow over your body than other materials.

Billing “Roman Holiday” as ‘a great classic’ is by no means an overstatement. Directed by William Wyler, it’s Audrey Hepburn’s first role for which she won an Oscar in 1953. The costume design for this film was put together by none other than the famous Hollywood costume designer, Edith Head. Rose-tinted nostalgia lends a romantic charm to her designs, which come with a distinctive 50’s flavour. The outfit that served as the poster look of the film consisted of a white button-down shirt, striped silk scarf and a midi-skirt cinched at the waist with a belt. Vogue magazine described the look as the “embodiment of our new feminine ideal” which established Hepburn’s enduring legacy as a fashion maven.
