The story behind this garment

Some days you want to look elegant and barely feel your clothes. This nettle fibre tunic is made for those days. Green, with a V-neck and a belt, it sits loosely, holds its shape beautifully, and stays light from morning to evening.

It is knitted from nettle fibre, a material with a surprise. It feels like linen but silkier, so it touches your skin softly and cool. This tunic exists only once. Wear it on its own, or over a shirt, blouse or lightweight sweater: it looks considered with each of them.

That feeling has a reason.

Nettle fibre absorbs moisture well and dries quickly, so you stay dry and fresh in the heat. It does not fade in the sun and has natural antibacterial properties. The tunic is 100% nettle fibre, green, size XXL, 82 cm long and 76 cm wide. If you prefer another natural fibre, take a look at the Hemp Tunic, and the Materials page tells you more about the other materials I work with.

Size & Fit:

To know how this nettle fibre tunic will fit you, take a similar garment you already own, lay it flat and measure its length and width with a tape measure. Compare your numbers with mine (see the last photo), and you will know almost exactly how it will sit on you.

Care:

Hand wash and rinse with fabric softener. Gently press the water out in a towel and leave the tunic to dry flat. No ironing needed.
