Lilja the Label is a Finnish startup focused on creating sustainable swimwear, with an emphasis on ethical production and high-quality, timeless pieces that resist the fast-fashion cycle. Established in 2016, this Finland-based company eschews traditional fashion seasonality, producing swimwear suitable for diverse weather conditions, from winter swims to summer days.
Headquartered in Finland, the brand designs its collections in Helsinki and relies on a family-operated manufacturing facility in Guimaraes, Portugal. Their pieces are characterized by earthy tones and minimalistic prints that combine natural elements with vintage styles, projecting longevity both in design and environmental impact.
Having received a €70.00K Support Program investment from Business Finland in January 2022, Lilja the Label demonstrates financial traction appealing to sustainability-focused investors. The brand's commitment to an ethical production chain indicates a core strength in a growing eco-conscious market.
