Linen Blend

2 replies

I don't usually buy linen clothes as they crease so easily. I keep seeing clothes online that are "linen blend". Are these also prone to creasing? Just wondering as I've seen a really nice linen blend dress I may buy

I have some linen blend shorts and they don't crease noticeably. "Blend" could equally mean 5% linen or 90% linen in the mix so it probably really depends on the item. My shorts were cheapies from tesco so probably only minimal linen in that blend which explains no creases.

Yes, I find linen/viscose blends to crease less than pure linen at the same price point (with expensive linen the difference doesn't seem that great). I also find it a bit easier to iron. But as above it should be a decent mix percentage.
