Summer may be in full swing, but it’s never too late to rethink your warm-weather wardrobe—and that's where lightweight linen staples come in. Not only will the best linen pieces carry you through both formal and casual occasions, but they also tend to be light (a given, considering the fabric), machine-washable (for easy care and maintenance), and, of course, versatile enough to wear multiple times throughout a trip.
Wherever your summer travels may take you, pack wisely by bringing along some tried-and-true linen basics from trusted brands like Madewell, Anthropologie, Everlane, and Left on Friday. Keep reading for a few of our favorite light-as-air pieces of linen clothing for women, from dresses and tops to skirts and jackets.

For a more tailored look, snag a straight-silhouetted mini skirt or a pair of long-ish shorts (the one below from Anthropologie, which boasts a built-in belt, checks all the boxes). Or, for a hint of edginess, opt for a mid-length skirt with a slit paired with a solid or patterned crop top or oversized button-down (if it’s also linen, all the better).
A quintessential summer staple, the best linen tops will keep you cool all season long. Our top picks include everything from a button-embellished camisole that can be easily layered with a denim jacket to a nautical striped tee (best styled with leggings, jeans, or bike shorts for a day of sightseeing or lounging in the airport), to a pretty pleated shirt dress that can pull
