What to know about Rove

French flax linen does most work

Nearly the whole range — dresses, tops, wide-leg bottoms, jumpsuits, matching sets — is built from French flax linen rather than a broad mix of fabrics.

A travel and resort wardrobe

The line is aimed at warm-weather travel: short and long dresses, linen sets and beach pareos in sun-bleached neutrals and Mediterranean colour.

Direct-to-consumer, maternity-friendly cuts

Founded in Byron Bay in 2014 and sold only through its own site and a 150,000-plus Instagram following, shipping from Australian, US and EU warehouses.
