100% Linen Checked Boatneck Half-Sleeve Top
An oversized linen top in a soft gingham check, cut with a round boat neck and half sleeves. The kind of top that goes on at 7am and still feels fine at 7pm. Four colourways, S to XXL.
The fabric
100% linen, lightweight and opaque, with no stretch. The check is woven in, not printed, so it won't fade the way a print does, and the lightweight cloth means it doesn't sit heavy on the shoulders even in an oversized cut. Easy to layer under a cardigan when the aircon runs cold.
The fit
Oversized and straight through the body (H-line), regular length. A round boat neck across the shoulders, with half sleeves that sit above the elbow, giving plenty of room to move without ever feeling tight under the arms.
How to wear it
Wear it loose over shorts or a skirt for everyday heat, or tucked into trousers if the day needs to look more put together. Comes in Lavender, Ice Blue, Coral Pink and Sandy Sky, so it's easy to pick a colour that matches whatever you already wear on repeat.
- 100% linen, lightweight, opaque
- Oversized fit, straight H-line silhouette
- Boat neck, half sleeve
- Woven gingham check
- No stretch
Care
Machine wash cold, hang to dry in the shade. Skip the dryer, it shortens the life of the weave. A warm iron while damp settles the check back into shape.

Made the long way
Linen is slow to work with. It is cut flat, sewn straight and finished by hand — which is exactly why it lasts more than one summer.
What our customers say
I'm 58 and had honestly given up on dresses. This is the first in years that skims the bits I'm self-conscious about and still feels elegant. Ordered my usual 14 — spot on. I feel like myself again in it.
The fabric was the happy surprise — soft, with a bit of weight, and not the least bit see-through. It looks far more expensive than it cost and drapes exactly like the photos. So glad I took the chance.
Wore it to my son's wedding and didn't stop getting compliments. I felt graceful instead of frumpy for the first time in years. Tip: I'm 5'4" so I wore a small heel — the length is generous. Already choosing a second colour.
Finally sleeves that cover the arms without being hot, and a length that works with flats. Comfortable enough to wear right through a long garden lunch. True to size for me — no need to size up.
Ordered on the Tuesday, arrived Friday with tracking the whole way, beautifully packaged. I was nervous buying online but this felt like a proper Australian company. Wouldn't hesitate to order again.
