LOVE FASHION / We love fashion. Twice a year, the creativity of our design team in the Cologne studio creates new LANIUS collections. Feminine, individual and designed with great attention to detail. Reflected trends and high-quality materials determine the design of our slow fashion.
THINK ORGANIC / We focus on sustainability and ecology: LANIUS is GOTS-certified, a member of the IVN (International Association of the Natural Textile Industry) and uses mainly organic materials that are regularly inspected by independent institutes. Out of love and respect for the animal, we use mulesing-free wool. Our vegan fashion is "PETA-Approved Vegan" certified and carries the corresponding logo for animal suffering-free clothing.
We design
Slow fashion with a strong attitude: two collections a year of the highest quality.
We are LANIUS: a real family business based in Cologne. Claudia Lanius is the founder and designer of the brand and a German pioneer in the sustainable fashion industry. Together with her daughter, Annabelle Homann, and a strong team, they develop favourite pieces that last.
BE RESPONSIBLE / We take responsibility in the cooperation with our production partners - regardless of whether it is a large company or a small family business. In principle, our producers have certificates that ensure the social standards in the company. These include the GOTS certificate, the BSCI Code of Conduct, the SA8000 standard and auditing by the Fair Wear Foundation. In addition to the seals and certificates, personal contact with our producers and consistent values play a central role in the selection of our partner companies, which we visit regularly.
Fair production, high-quality materials, reflected trends
We create slow fashion and produce two collections a year in this spirit. Our materials come mainly from organic farming. For the processing of our garments, we only use chemicals that have been tested and certified by independent institutes beforehand. In addition, we make sure that transport routes are as short and environmentally friendly as possible. To prolong the life of every LANIUS garment, we provide comprehensive information on proper care, repair and resale options.
„For us, sustainability is not a trend, but a forward-looking process with regard to people, animals and the environment.“
