Sustainability

At Lumi, sustainability is woven into every thread — from fabric selection to the final stitch. Each piece is thoughtfully made to be worn, loved, and lived in.

Luxury that lasts. Choices that matter.

We believe true luxury isn’t about excess — it’s about intention. From the way a garment feels on your skin to the way it’s made behind the seams, every detail reflects care, consciousness, and quiet strength.

We’re not here to chase trends or overproduce. We create fewer pieces — and make them better — so you can wear them longer, love them deeper, and move through the world with ease and purpose.

Materials that Matter

We thoughtfully select natural and deadstock fabrics — not only for their beauty and breathability, but for their lower environmental impact. Each textile is chosen to age gracefully, move with you, and to become part of your story over time.

Our collections are free from seasonal pressure. Instead, we work slowly and intentionally, offering pieces that feel relevant today — and even more beautiful tomorrow.

Ethical Craftsmanship

Every Lumi piece is handmade to order by skilled seamstresses who are paid fair, dignified wages for their artistry. We believe the hands behind the garment are just as important as the piece itself.

We don’t keep inventory. Each piece is created only once it’s been chosen — a slower, more mindful process that eliminates overproduction and allows us to focus on detail, quality, and care.

Conscious Pricing

Sustainability and transparency go hand in hand — not only in how we make our garments, but in how we price them.

Every piece from Lumi reflects the real cost of ethical creation: from responsibly sourced materials and fair wages to slow production and small-scale operations and carbon-neutral shipping. We choose lower markups than industry standards to keep our prices fair and accessible, without ever compromising on ethics or craftsmanship.

In contrast to fast fashion — where inflated margins often hide exploitation — our pricing reflects quality, responsibility, and respect.

Where Your Money Goes

Here’s a simple breakdown of what makes up the cost of a Lumi piece:

• Materials
  Natural and deadstock fabrics, trims, and thoughtful finishes
• Labour
  Fair wages for skilled artisans who handcraft each made-to-order piece
• Logistics
  Minimal, recyclable packaging and carbon-neutral international shipping via DHL.
  
• Company Costs
  Supporting our small team, covering design, development, photography, website, customer support, and future growth
• Taxes
  Lumi pays any required taxes applicable to operations in our country of origin. International buyers are responsible for taxes or duties in their own region.

We price consciously — not to cut corners, but to honour the time, the people, and the principles behind every garment.

Packaging with Purpose

We keep our packaging minimal, recyclable, and reusable whenever possible. Just like our designs, it’s not about excess — it’s about making even the smallest details feel deliberate, lasting and beautiful.

Care for What You Love

Sustainability doesn’t stop at checkout. We encourage gentle care and long wear — because what you love and look after stays with you longer.

Each order includes care instructions to help extend the life of your garment. A slow approach to style invites a slower, more intentional way of living.

Progress, Not Perfection

We know sustainability is an ongoing journey, not a finish line. We’re committed to improving — with honesty, transparency, and deep respect for the people and planet behind every piece.

Thank you for choosing a quieter kind of fashion.
