tunics are made with 100% linen and feature embroidery on the chest, the bottom of the front and the sleeves. The sides have slits up to the belt loops, and the waist-tie is optional and can be removed. 

Please note that the embroidery covers large areas on the garment, and its very detailed - which results in a stiffer feeling! 

linen does not stretch - if you are on the upper end of the a sizing, you may have to size up.

Care instructions: Wash cold on a delicate cycle to preserve color and embroidery, and to keep the linen from shrinking. Placing the cardigan into a bag made for delicates can help with agitation during washing. Please air dry if possible to preserve the quality of the embroidery and to prevent the fabric from shrinking. While the garment is pre-shrunk, it can shrink further if washed or dried hot. Also, drying may damage linen fibers.
