Ladies linen knit dress

This summery dress with a rounded V-neckline is made by Les Racines du Ciel from a fine linen knit, which is characterized by a grainy feel and very comfortable to wear, as the linen naturally brings cooling properties. Because the lightweight knit is somewhat transparent, it is recommended to combine the dress with a matching undergarment.

On the western tip of the Breton peninsula lies the department of Finistère. According to the Roman name, this is the end of the earth. For the Bretons, on the other hand, it is “Penn ar Bed”, the beginning of the world – a reading that does far more justice to the brand “Les Racines du Ciel” (i. e., the roots of heaven). Nathalie Goyette and Christian Tournafol founded the Quimper-based brand. The two have been producing elegant, feminine and timeless women’s fashion since 2005. Besides aiming at high-quality standards, Les Racines du Ciel’s declared entrepreneurial goal is to promote artisanal traditions and products and thus preserve jobs in impoverished rural areas. They choose their production locations correspondingly.
