Care and Maintenance
- Washing: machine wash at 30°C on a delicate cycle, separate light/dark colours for the first few washes
- Detergent: use a mild eco-friendly detergent, avoid bleach which damages natural fibres
- Drying: lay flat or hang on a hanger, avoid tumble dryer which shrinks linen
- Ironing: medium-low iron (linen requires ironing, lyocell less so), iron slightly damp for optimal results
- Storage: fold or hang, avoid piling up which creates permanent creases in linen
- Durability: 2-3 seasons with proper care, lyocell maintains softness for up to 50-60 washes
Sustainable Materials - Lyocell and Linen
Lyocell (Tencel™): Cellulosic fibre from sustainably grown eucalyptus wood. Circular production process recovers 99% of solvents. Biodegradable, silk-like softness, 50% more moisture absorption than cotton, natural thermoregulation. Certifications: OEKO-TEX, FSC.
Linen: Natural fibre from the flax plant, cultivation requires minimal water/pesticides. 100% biodegradable, superior strength to cotton, excellent breathability, natural antibacterial properties. Softens with washing while maintaining structure.
Jersey Mix: Jersey knit construction ensures fluid drape, tactile softness, light weight 120-140g/m². Combination of lyocell/linen balances softness and freshness.
FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does linen wrinkle easily?
A: Yes, linen tends to wrinkle (a natural characteristic). The 70% lyocell blend reduces wrinkles compared to 100% linen. For an impeccable look, iron lightly; for a casual-chic style, embrace natural wrinkles.
Q: Is it transparent? Does it require a camisole underneath?
A: Desert Sage medium green is not transparent. Nude-coloured underwear is recommended for maximum discretion, but no layering is required for opacity.
Q: How does it perform with perspiration?
A: Excellent. Lyocell absorbs 50% more moisture than cotton and dries quickly. Breathable linen prevents overheating. Ideal for hot and humid climates.
Q: Does it shrink after washing?
A: Minimal shrinkage of 2-3% if washed at 30°C and air-dried naturally. Avoid tumble drying, which causes linen to shrink by up to 5-8%.
Q: Is Desert Sage light or dark green?
A: Medium-light sage green with a grey undertone. Versatile: can be paired with white, beige, denim, brown, black. Perfect for neutral palettes and earth tones.
