We all know that while summer has started, we still haven’t had to deal with hotter temperatures and scalding heat just yet. While most of us would prefer to be lazing around at the pool or beach we still have to get dressed and go about our business. Choosing our summer outfits is not just about fashion, it is also about function movement and breathability. We found everything we were looking for in MUJI’s summer fashion collection.
MUJI manages to hit the sweet spot of timeless and trendy with their neutral colors and simple designs every season and without ever compromising on comfort. The latest collection designed for both men and women looks refreshing and also feels great on your skin.
French linen is a star this season. The fabric is constructed by weaving flax fibers into a textile. The highly sought-after material feels high-end, and its natural features make it easy to care for. Additionally, French farmers generally follow more environmentally-friendly practices growing flax. The collection also includes other items that are made from organic linen, so whatever you choose you are also supporting sustainable fashion. Just like us, linen gets softer and better with age, so any garment you buy that is made from linen is guaranteed to bring you joy for many wears to come.
The easiest items to start with are the dresses. There is a wide selection of linen dresses that are either button down or pull-over style with different collar options that include stand-up, classic and V-neck. They are the easiest to wear. Just pop on a dress, slip on some comfy sandals and accessorize and you are out the door. The same dress can be easily dressed up or down with different shoe styles or bolder bling.
“We also love the separates because of their versatility. MUJI’s neutral colors make mixing and matching different outfits a no-brainer. The Organic Linen Washed French Sleeve Blouse will work with the French Linen Straight Pants Ankle Length or the French Linen Gathered Skirt. You can tuck it in and add a belt or leave it untucked for a more carefree look. We also love the linen knitwear cardigans. They are lightweight and are perfect for layering when we’re indoors and the AC is blasting on full power.
Men will also appreciate the French Linen Washed Shirt that comes in a variety of colors and stand-up collars as well as classic collars. These are the perfect shirts for the season and look great” “at the office or after work. There’s also a wide selection of cotton t-shirts. As for bottoms; you can find the perfect 4-way stretch chinos, denim and amazing linen trousers that work perfectly with the linen blazers. A linen suit is a timeless wardrobe staple for any man, whether he’s presenting in a boardroom or sailing the seas on his yacht.
Style isn’t only about what you are wearing on the outside, MUJI has the best collection of undergarments and accessories that complete an outfit by providing you with camisoles, undies and socks that are made from the perfect materials for summer. Cotton, silk blends and breathable fabrics will be soft on your skin and make going out and having fun so much easier.” “The footwear collection is full of practical and trendy choices for everyone. From sandals and flip flops to packable ballet flats that look great with the linen dresses and pants. All of the fashion items at MUJI share the same color scheme so everything feels cohesive and put together, it is impossible to clash in any of these beautiful things.
