Tencel Linen in London Town

Tencel Linen from Merchant & Mills is beautifully versatile and durable, with a soft fluid drape and a matte finish – linen gives the fabric more body, and a slightly slubby finish.

Easy to work with and ultra-soft to the touch, Merchant & Mills’ Tencel Linen is suitable for making dresses, tops, trousers and lightweight jackets. Known for its natural breathability and moisture absorption, as well as being antibacterial and thermoregulating, Tencel is a comfortable and sustainable option designed to be worn next to the skin – the addition of linen adds an extra dimension of beautiful texture.
