Lilja the Label

Lilja the Label is a Finnish swimwear brand founded in 2016, with a showroom in Punavuori, Helsinki.

Lilja the Label creates sustainable women's swimwear that is inspired by nature. The brand has also expanded its product range to include ethical and sustainable loungewear as well as underwear. Lilja the Label's lifestyle products have a beautiful and simple design and are also well suited for urban life.

Lilja the Label's goal is to operate as sustainably as possible. The brand's swimwear uses high-quality ECONYL® and REPREVE® materials, which have been recycled from plastic waste. Lilja the Label's underwear and lounge collection combines bamboo, the softest organic cotton recycled polyester.

Lilja the Label's products are designed in Helsinki, Finland and ethically manufactured in family-owned factories in Guimarães, Portugal and Bali, Indonesia. Sustainable and safe manufacturing is an important part of the production chain for the brand. Lilja the Label's collections consist of earthy colors combined with graphic and minimalist prints inspired by nature and vintage vibes.
