French person here. Yes, people wear a lot of linen in the summer where I'm from... but then most people aren't overweight. My linen outfits are designed with added fabric weight at the bottom (like my hemmed trousers) to make them hang better. I really like them, although I have to say they're sold in places that don't have the subtropical humidity of DC summers! I prefer to wear light cotton voile for that. It can get a little sheer, but for the top I don't care, and voile skirts or dresses usually have a liner of the same fabric (the ones that don't are beach coverings).

It's not the wrinkles on linen that are the problem. It's being overweight. In the US, two thirds of adults are overweight or obese. It's really hard to dress a figure carrying too much weight and make them look elegant.

I apologize for being politically incorrect, but it's true. It's not healthy either. There's an epidemic of diabetes and cardiovascular disease in this country. So-called body positivity is costing us dearly.[/quote]
