Ladies shirt blouse dress

Linen is the material of choice for summer dresses, as the flax fiber cannot store heat, absorbs a lot of moisture and quickly releases it to the outside again. A special feature of this button-through shirt dress is that the linen used comes from certified organic farming. The fabric is light and airy and has the typical fine crease. Thanks to its loose, straight cut, the dress hugs the figure and allows plenty of freedom of movement, which is helped by the box pleat under the back shoulder yoke. The unlined dress has a shirt collar, long sleeves with buttoned cuffs and a rounded hem that is slightly longer at the back than at the front.

The owl in the logo of the Danish label Knowledge Cotton Apparel stands for wisdom and knowledge, two elements that are key to the company's history and brand philosophy. Back in 1969, Jørgen Mørup and his father founded a small textile company in the Danish town of Herning and already started to focus on the subject of sustainability. At the end of the 1980s, the two began making their garments from ecologically produced cotton, becoming Denmark's green pioneers, as it were. The next logical step in 2008 was the foundation of Knowledge Cotton Apparel, this time with son respectively grandson Mads as part of the team, a label that unites the company's heritage with a contemporary, sustainable corporate strategy. Today, Knowledge Cotton Apparel stands for casual, sporty menswear, usually made from GOTS-certified organic cotton or "Happy Sheep Wool". The label also works with recycled PET bottles, which it shreds, melts down and spins into yarn to make a durable, water-repellent fabric for jackets.
