Clothing that earns its place.
Lumen began with a simple frustration: a wardrobe full of clothes, and nothing that lasted. We set out to make fewer, better pieces — natural fibres, honest construction, and fits refined until they feel inevitable.
Founded in 2019 in New York, designed for everywhere.
Made to last, made responsibly.
We choose natural and recycled fibres, work only with mills and makers we've visited, and pay every partner a living wage. Each order ships plastic-free with offset emissions.
- ✓ Traceable to the fibre source
- ✓ Carbon-neutral shipping, always
- ✓ Free repairs for the life of the garment
- ✓ Take-back program for worn-out pieces
The Lumen timeline
A frustration becomes a brand
Founders Mara and Theo launch Lumen with a single linen shirt and a promise: fewer, better pieces.
Full material traceability
Every fibre we use becomes traceable to its source — published openly on each product page.
Carbon-neutral, plastic-free
All shipping goes carbon-neutral and plastic-free, and our repair program launches.
40,000 wardrobes and counting
A community that values quality over quantity — and keeps wearing it for years.
