FABRIC & CARE
Print Name: "FAITH"
FABRIC CONTENTS: 100% Hanky Linen (Handkerchief Weight Linen)
Fabric Name: DENA
Linen textiles appear to be some of the oldest in the world, where examples found in Europe and Africa date back thousands of years old. For centuries linen has often been associated with wealth since it was mainly used by the upper classes of society. Linen is a bast fiber, made from the fibers of the flax plant, and it is labor-intensive to manufacture, thus produced in relatively small quantities. When fabricated, it is highly valued for its’ smooth texture, organic natural luster, and exceptional coolness in hot weather. A very durable and strong fabric, linen is one of the few that is stronger wet than dry, and it has no lint or pilling tendency. Nevertheless, the tendency to wrinkle is often considered part of the fabric’s “charm”, including its’ random “slubs” (small knots) that provide the aesthetic appeal of a natural product.
This premium Handkerchief Weight Linen is lightweight, semi-sheer and gets softer the more it is washed. Hanky Linen is also highly absorbent, which makes for an ideal garment in keeping the wearer cool and comfortable.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS: Machine wash warm with like colors (preferably on gentle cycle) and with mild detergent (do not use bleach, and do not pour fabric softener directly on garment). Tumble dry low, or line dry, or air dry on a good non-absorbent hanger. Warm, steam iron (to reverse side). Dry clean OK.
Note: This Hanky Linen fabric is semi-sheer where an undergarment might be necessary to reduce the transparent character of the weave. Also, actual colors may vary slightly due to your screen.

THE STORY
Thoughtfully planned wardrobes always seem to find room for comfortable, sensibly styled woven tops. Such is our signature Dena Shelby Blouse, which was crafted using a natural fibered, eco-friendly, 100% Washable Handkerchief Weight Linen fabric chosen for long wearing comfort, durability and minimal care. Our full-bodied silhouette here affords an elegant look with clean lines to help express your own personal sense of style.
Our pullover woven Shelby Blouse features a scoop neckline that is softened by a thin band of slightly gathered fabric, which prevents hard lines around the collar. Juliet cuffs adorn the ¾ length sleeves, which puff at the elbow, providing a feminine touch to this loose fitting silhouette. Gathered empire styling creates a tiered look that flares slightly to the hips, offering much appreciated comfort and wearability. Subtle stitching throughout, hidden side pockets at the bottom hemline, and garment dyed richness provide appreciable value to this wardrobe investment. Our Shelby pairs easily with pants, leggings, and designer jeans, making this versatile top perfect for travel, work, or play.
