Zara’s linen- blend halter top with back tie top made of a linen blend features  gathered detail and both button and tie fastening at the back. The crop top is made with 55 per cent linen and 45 per cent cotton. The European-grown flax-linen is grown without using genetically modified seeds, limiting the use of pesticides and fertilisers.

Furthermore, caring for the garments reduce the amount of energy used in care processes.
