Clothes that cling to the skin on hot summer days make you feel uncomfortable. Instead, loose-fit garments sewn from light materials are better as they allow the air to cool you down. These casual linen pants with tapered leg bottoms are ideal for hot weather. They have an elasticated waist, pockets in the side seams and pleats at the front waist. The inherent natural creases of the linen suit the relaxed style, so it's not necessary to iron the pants after washing them.
The wide-hem tunic is sewn from lightweight printed viscose fabric with woven-in gold dots. Its bodice fronts overlap slightly, and the lower panels are gathered to the bodice. The tunic has voluminous gathered sleeves, and its neckline is finished with a band.

Layering is the best way of dressing up for the variable spring weather. The pullover anorak is roomy enough to fit over a woolen sweater, if necessary. On warmer days, it can be worn with only a T-shirt under. It has a protective, well-shaped hood and a generously long zipper placket. A roomy pocket is inserted into the yoke seam on the front, and the sleeves have ribbed cuffs. The side vents make the anorak easy to slip on. The material is tightly-woven windproof cotton fabric.
