Why Linen?

Unique Properties & Health Benefits

Linen is long lasting natural fiber derived from flax plants. It is breathable, highly moisture absorbent, and has unique temperature-regulating properties. It is also antibacterial and resistant to allergens making it the top choice for sensitive people.

Free Of Harmful Substances

Linen, unlikely other fabrics, which are produced under intense chemical treatment, is a plant which grows without the need for many fertilizers or pesticides. This means that not only the fabric we put on our skin is free from extreme harmful substances, but also it does not damage our soil.

Less Thirsty Than Cotton

Unlike cotton which requires huge amount of water to be produced, linen requires least water to be grown. Natural rainfalls are usually enough to irrigate flax plantations and thus growing linen doesn’t contribute to withdrawal of ground or surface water resources.

Biodegradable & Recyclable

Linen is a recyclable and biodegradable fabric being completely decomposed by biological process within first two weeks when properly buried in the soil, while degradation of polyester fabric takes near 200 years.

Why Made-To-Order?

Avoiding Overproduction

Clothes are a necessary part ofour life, but our ever-expanding wardrobes are damaging the Planet. Global fashion industry waste is huge. Up to 100 billion new garments are made each year, leaving our Planet with 92 million tons of textile waste every single year.

Reducing Landfill Waste

Our brand chooses to work on Made-To-Order model as it is a huge manufacturing tool to reduce textile waste and avoid overproduction. We allow our customer to lead manufacturing process by showing a demand and produce only what is needed.

Worth the wait

"This was my first purchase from NPL. I made a couple customizations to the sleeves and neckline. It turned out beautifully. I am a size 10/12 and ordered the large. I could’ve done the m/l I think in this style. . but, the side ties help pull it in a bit. Overall love the dress. . and LOVE the grape wine color! Top quality linen as well."

"With a few modifications, this is my favorite dress ever!! Just wish it came with waist ties as standard."

Shannon (5/5)

Take the plunge!

"Something about me: I almost never purchase clothing online because I always worry it won't fit me, especially being postpartum now and my measurements changing. After trying on this dress, I will exclusively shop at NPL from here on out. It fits absolutely beautifully--I ordered a S/M in grape wine and it is so flattering while still being incredibly modest. Modifications that I requested: added removable waist ties, added about an inch to the waist, and added a few inches to the length. This dress has restored a sense of confidence I hadn't yet felt while being 6 months postpartum. I love that this company practices what they preach in terms of sustainability and slow fashion. In addition to this, their customer service team is so lovely; they reply to emails fairly quickly and are always able to answer any questions or concerns one might have. The NPL team and seamstresses are an incredibly talented group of folks and I will for sure be purchasing this dress again in as many colors and patterns as I am able!"

Mallory (5/5)

Cute and comfortable!

"I love this dress. It looks great, is nice and loose through the waist and skirt. Two things to note: the shoulders and chest I found closer to an extra small - it fit, but a bit more restrictive. Secondly, the buttons may soften up, but are generally stiff - so wouldn't be super fast to open and close the top."
