When we talk about SMART dressing at FLAX, we’re talking about clothes that make sense for real life. Simple, mindful, approachable, relaxed, and timeless. That way of thinking has always guided our work as a team, and it’s what makes Fundamentals such an important collection for us.
Fundamentals represents everything we value in everyday dressing. Built around our signature medium-weight linen, this collection focuses on clean lines, reliable shapes, and silhouettes that move naturally with you. These are the pieces you reach for without hesitation — easy, versatile, and endlessly wearable.
Every color and silhouette in Fundamentals is chosen with intention. The palette is grounded and adaptable, and the bodies are streamlined to layer effortlessly. Together, they form the backbone of a wardrobe that works — supporting statement pieces, connecting collections, and simplifying the act of getting dressed.
What makes Fundamentals especially meaningful to us is how seamlessly it integrates with the rest of FLAX. These styles work beautifully alongside de Soleil, Affinity, Core, and Core Companions, acting as a natural connector within the FLAX wardrobe. Whether you’re anchoring a bold look or building something quiet and everyday, Fundamentals supports it with ease.
Grounded Neutrals Included
Alongside this season’s Mineral, Naval Blue, Antique Rose, and Java, several styles are also offered in White, Black, and Natural. These are shades we return to again and again because they embody SMART dressing at its best — reliable, versatile, and designed to mix effortlessly across collections.
A Color Story Shaped by Nature and Time
Naval Blue
Naval Blue carries a quiet strength. With a subtle grey undertone, it feels grounded and fluid rather than sharp. Confident and enduring, it anchors the collection with depth that never overwhelms.
Mineral
Mineral feels shaped by nature and time. Its soft green cast holds the calm of water and the steadiness of stone, bringing balance and ease to the collection — luminous without being bright.
Antique Rose
Antique Rose is soft and time-worn, with warmth beneath its muted blush. It balances romance with resilience, offering a lived-in beauty that returns season after season.
Java
Java is warm and grounding, with a grey-washed richness that feels familiar and reassuring. It settles easily beside every shade, adding depth without heaviness.
The Silhouettes: Everyday Bodies, Thoughtfully Refined
Each silhouette in Fundamentals reflects our SMART approach to design — simple lines, mindful construction, approachable fit, relaxed comfort, and timeless appeal.
Side Pocket Tunic
A sleeveless tunic with princess seams that create natural shape without restriction. Pockets are hidden cleanly within the seams, keeping the silhouette smooth. Light, easy, and refined, it layers beautifully and offers effortless structure.
3/4 Pullover
A polished pullover in a true FLAX fit — comfortable, never tight. The scoop neckline and 3/4 sleeves with a button detail add quiet interest, while the length works seamlessly with Floods and other easy bottoms.
Floods (Fashion Colors)
Our iconic Flood silhouette returns in fresh fashion colors. Easy, timeless, and universally loved, Floods remain one of the most dependable shapes in any wardrobe.
Sociable Flood
A flat-front, wide-leg pant with side seam pockets and a clean, flowing line. It offers movement without bulk and brings a slightly more refined feel to relaxed linen dressing.
Pocketed Ankle Pant
A more fitted silhouette with a tapered leg and flat front, offering a slimmer option within Fundamentals while maintaining the ease and breathability of linen.
Pleat Back Dress
A knee-length dress with short cap sleeves, pockets, and gentle pleating at the back to create shape without structure. Breezy and balanced, it’s an easy everyday dress that always feels put together.
