Made in Canada using an airy linen material, the simple tunic style features front pockets and an open-collar design. It’s the dress that can easily take you from the market to the beach. Talk about a summer staple.

A romantic top that’s made to order, this sweet style from the Vancouver-based brand Boheme is available in black, white, oat. and brown linen. Boasting ruffle and gathered detailing, the locally manufactured garment comes with a matching ribbon so you can cinch the style at the waist — or wear the ribbon as a matching necklace.

As linen can sometimes feel unstructured — that’s both the best and the worst part about the textile — it’s nice to see the material used in a more tailored style like this Baboon Standout Linen Blazer. The Vancouver-designed topper features a single-button style for a crisp, clean look and linen material that’s sourced from an Italian mill. Bellissima!

A long short is a must-try style this season. This gender-neutral style, from the Vancouver-based brand Monos, features a straight fit and easy, elasticated waist for a no-fuss effect. The lightweight linen bottoms are available in a selection of four shades, including black, white, beige and olive green. If you’re unsure of how to style a longer-length short, we suggest pairing it with the ultimate summer shoe of 2026: the kitten-heel thong sandal.

While these are technically a men’s pant, we prefer to lean into the idea of these trousers as a unisex style. Made from a 100 per cent linen material and made in Portugal, the design sees added style (and functionality) afforded by side cargo pockets. We love the idea of pairing these relaxed-fit cargo pants with a sleek tank top and a bold necklace for a day-to-night ensemble that’s carefree yet irresistibly chic.
