BEHIND THE BRAND
WHO WE ARE
LAHLIS is a UK and Peru brand making clothes with cuts that flatter, fabrics that last, and a community that hypes you up. We care for our makers in Peru, for the planet, and for every girl finding her style.
OUR MISSION
To create clothing that empowers, from the women who make it, to the girls who wear it.
OUR VISION
To be teen girls’ ‘go-to’ feel-good fits and a feel-good community.
EMPOWERMENT, FOR REAL
-
In craft
Every piece is made in Peru by skilled women in small batches with time to do it right. Fair pay and respect for the hands behind your clothes.
-
In community
From workshops in Peru to wardrobes in the UK, we build together. We partner with Menin Yaby artisans to keep resources moving where they matter most.
-
On you
Pieces that move with you and style your way. Wear again and again. A community that hypes you up online and in real life. Made to hype you up. For girls becoming themselves.
OUR FOUNDER
I grew up in Peru and moved to London at 13. During lockdown, I wanted to keep up with trends but only had hand-me-downs, so I taught myself to sew and turned old clothes into pieces I would actually wear.
I once listed a handmade top on Depop by accident, and it sold in hours. I flew back to Peru, teamed up with an amazing seamstress, and made a first collection with local fabrics. It sold out in under a week.
Since then, I have built LAHLIS bit by bit, growing slowly, learning constantly, and staying true to what matters. Empowerment. Every piece is made in Peru and made to last. I want every girl who wears LAHLIS to feel what I felt that day. Confident and part of something bigger.
