PHILOSOPHY

Lena Milagros offers garments for which high quality natural yarns are used. Because every piece is handmade and reproduced to a limited amount you will obtain an almost unique item. All products are designed and (machine)-knit by Lena Milagros. Lena Milagros stands for slow fashion:

  • small-scale  |  craftsmanship  |  timeless and feminine design  |  taste for good materials

The process of developing, designing and creating is essential. Keeping the creative source open is the main objective, not reproduction. If you happen to value the outcome of this process and would like to wear something yourself, it would be a great compliment!
Lena Milagros uses three pricing categories per model in order to enable persons with a small budget to purchase a unique piece of garment as well as persons with ample income. Since every model will be manufactured up to six times, only two pieces are sold per category. Prices are exclusive of shipping.
Lena Milagros keeps only a small stock of yarns and works exclusively on demand. Therefore I appeal to your patience. But remember: you and I have committed ourselves to slow fashion!

 

NATURAL FIBRES

  • Organic silk from Japan: produced from the leftovers of spun filament silk. Supple and soft to the skin.  In summer cool, in winter warm.
  • Alpaca from Peru: fine, smooth alpaca hair. In comparison to sheep’s wool it is warmer and not prickly. It does not contains lanolin which makes it suitable for persons allergic to wool.
  • Mohair: fine, silky hair from the angora goat. Soft, shiny and transparent.
  • Wool: hair from the good old sheep.

Washing instructions: Hand wash is preferred though machine wash by using the wool-programme is also possible. Use a woolmark detergent.
