Choosing your fabric by carefully researching its characteristics and uses depending on your specific needs according to the weather is a wise thing. There is an extensive list of fabric types available in market. Ensure you always have the perfect one which suits you best in the season.

Linen is one of the world’s oldest textile fibres obtained from inside the woody stem of the flax plant. The fibres are much stronger and more lustrous than cotton. This fabric is very cool and absorbent, so it is best to wear in summer. Linen allows air to circulate to your skin and heat to waft away. It is a breathable fabric which absorbs sweat and dries very fast. Good quality linen is very durable and will wear a long time. Though linen is laborious to manufacture, its yarns are not only very strong but also usually very firm. The fabric possesses a natural crispiness when ironed damp, thus does not require starching and has a natural lustre. It becomes softer and more lustrous with use and laundering. Linen has sometimes been considered as an expensive fabric, but today it is competitive in price with many other fabrics. Its durability should be taken in to account when considering its cost.
