There are countless reasons why a linen top is an essential item to add to your wardrobe this season. Linen is essentially a hollow fibre and will keep you cool in the summer due to its inherent characteristics. It can absorb up to 20% of its weight in moisture before it starts to feel damp, leaving you feeling fresh when the sun is beating on you. Linen has been found to have been used in clothing in Egypt as early as 8,000 BC. You can pick up linen in various styles; from floral patterned crop tops and long flowy casual shirts to slightly more formal office-appropriate shirts. And while linen often comes with a hefty price tag, adapting the material to be linen-blend cuts down the price. We've gathered a range of linen tops ranging in style and price point in our list that we think everyone should add to their wardrobe.
