What materials and fabrics does Lilja use?

All our swimwear is made from ECONYL® regenerated nylon. ECONYL® is produced from recycled waste such as discarded fishing nets, fabric scraps and industrial plastics, and the fabric itself is made in Italy.

Where to find the exact composition

Every product page lists the fabric composition of that product.

Fabrics that feel different

Most of our styles use the same base fabric, so they feel and fit alike across colours. A few use a special fabric, which is always mentioned on the product page:

  • Sienna: a textured fabric that is stretchier and fits softer than our usual fabric.
  • Gathered: a shimmery fabric that is also stretchier than usual.
  • Chloe: a soft ribbed fabric with lace details.

Many of our styles are double-lined for coverage and support. Double-layered one-pieces, such as the Ruched Onepiece, feel snug at first and adjust to your body over the first wears.

Other products

In all our production we use only recycled, regenerated natural or otherwise sustainable fabrics. This also applies to our accessories, such as tote bags and beach towels.

Looking after the fabric

How you rinse, wash and dry your swimwear has a big effect on how long it lasts. See How do I care for my swimwear?
