In this guide, we’ll explore why these fabrics are perfect for the warmer months and how they make a lasting difference for both you and the planet.
1. Pure Cotton
At LUNAR, we source ethically grown cotton certified by Oeko-Tex in accordance with international sustainability standards. Free from harmful chemicals, this breathable, biodegradable fiber ensures comfort in warmer weather while reducing environmental waste. Eco-friendly cultivation supports responsible farming that benefits both people and the planet.
Organic cotton reduces the environmental impact by using non-GMO seeds, no harmful chemicals, and traditional cultivation techniques, leading to 88% less water and 62% less energy usage compared to conventional cotton. *(Soil Association, 2023)
LUNAR's cotton adheres to strict safety and health standards, including the OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 certification for skin-safe fabrics. This “Zero Discharge” commitment and rigorous chemical management ensures that our fabrics are not only safe for you but also environmentally responsible.
2. Pure Linen
Pure linen is an eco-friendly, biodegradable fabric made from flax that requires minimal water and pesticides. Its breathable, moisture-wicking properties keep you cool, while its durability ensures long-lasting wear, making it ideal for both the planet and your wardrobe. *(Wild Linens, 2024)
3. Rayon
Rayon is a versatile and eco-friendly fabric that perfectly complements LUNAR's summer collection. Its breathability and moisture-wicking properties keep you cool and comfortable, while its biodegradable nature reduces environmental impact. With a luxurious feel that mimics silk, rayon offers elegance without sacrificing sustainability, allowing LUNAR to promote a stylish and responsible wardrobe. *(House of U, 2023)
Rayon can be made from sustainably sourced wood pulp, and when produced responsibly, it can have a lower environmental impact than conventional fabrics, using about 30% less water in its production. *(Sustainable Review, 2024)
