processing

All linen and hemp clothes are washed at 95 degrees after sewing, so that they are pleasantly soft and do not shrink later.


The clothes are sewn individually under fair working conditions (no series production). Then the finished parts are piece-dyed. The advantage is that shrinkage is impossible and the appearance does not change after washing.


One exception, however, is the hemp silk in its natural color - it shrinks a little when washed.


There is no chemical “refinement”.

the colors

We use reactive colors for linen and hemp, which means that the color combines with the fabric through a special pre-wash. So they are washable for years. The colors correspond to the organic standard GOTS / EKO Sustainable Textile, so they are environmentally friendly and kind to the skin. The special look of the Lucifer clothing is created by the coloring of the finished models - that is much more complex than dyeing the fabrics beforehand. The result is much more beautiful, the colors appear natural and lively.

The items of clothing made of hemp silk are individually dyed according to customer requirements.
The wonderful shine enhances the colors, in addition, the hand coloring creates a light shade that leaves a natural impression.

the fabrics

linen

    
We use pure linen 170g / sqm for blouses, wide shirts, light skirts and the like, linen 200g / sqm for trousers, dresses and jackets and 450-580g heavy linen for trousers, jackets and coats.
Linen is kind to the skin, breathable and antibacterial (therefore it does not have to be washed as often). The special feature is the cooling property, which is very pleasant in summer. However, our strong, robust linen is also warm in winter. The material stretches a little when worn. This means that your clothes will adapt well to your figure, stretch a little in width and give way a little in length.
New things in linen, especially when they are dyed, should therefore generally fit well or even be bought a little tight - they will grow a little wider when worn.
The linen and hemp fabrics are pre-washed at 95 degrees so that they become softer.
The advantage: there is no shrinkage and the appearance does not change after washing (40 degrees cotton cycle / spinning 1200 / dryer). Linen should be washed from time to time so that it contracts and retains its strength.

    Wool loden

For our heavy winter clothing and light wool clothes, we use pure milled new wool, also known as loden, as it has been worn for generations in the alpine regions in wind and weather. Loden is made in a long-established family business in the Upper Palatinate, which has been producing there for 16 generations.
Due to the elaborate processing of the new wool, the fulling, the loden is not only more resistant and warming, but also waterproof.
Due to the fabric structure of the loden there is a regular and controlled heat balance. Loden does not let the cold through, retains body heat and thus guarantees exceptional comfort. Virgin wool is extremely breathable, ie it takes water vapor from the body and releases it to the surface of the fabric. Loden is also windproof. Because the loden is processed without chemical additives, its windbreaking properties are retained. “Wool cleans itself” thanks to the natural wool fat it contains - wool lanolin. Airing outdoors and brushing out when dry is generally sufficient. If necessary, the wool can be cleaned. Washing on a cold wool cycle with subsequent steaming is also possible.

Wool doubleface

a new fabric from our wool manufacturer, a delicate, flattering wool fabric that doesn't poke! This fabric is very light, windproof and partially waterproof in light rain. It can be used to sew wonderfully light, loose jackets and coats for the transition and the milder winter days, which are usually even reversible. Don't wash, better dry clean if really necessary.

hemp

We use pure hemp 450-580 g / sqm for pants, jackets, coats and vests.
Like linen, hemp is skin-friendly and breathable. The fiber can absorb a lot of moisture, which means it is pleasantly cool in summer. In addition, the fiber was woven very tightly. Thus, our hemp is not only extremely robust and dimensionally stable, but also pleasantly warm in cold temperatures. Our hemp is much thicker and stronger compared to linen. The things have more stance and grip. The hemp is long fiber and is wet spun, which makes it very durable. The coarse structure also has a special charm. The special thing about hemp is its liveliness. The material stretches a little when worn. This means that your clothes will adapt well to your figure, stretch a little in width and give way a little in length. Washing: 40 degrees cotton cycle / spin 1200 / dryer ok.

Panama hemp

the finer variant, fine and smooth, lighter, good for summer and winter. Washing: 40 degrees cotton cycle / spin 1200 / dryer ok.

Hemp silk

For dresses, blouses, some skirts and trousers as well as men's shirts, we can use the hemp silk in 160 g / sqm.
In the case of hemp silk, the elegantly shimmering silk (30%) combines with hemp (70%) to form a beautifully falling, non-slip fabric with an exceptionally beautiful sheen. The hemp yarn gives the surface a fine, invigorating structure and is comfortable on the skin.
Hemp silk in natural color still shrinks a little when washed. When worn, the hemp silk will no longer expand compared to linen, but will keep its shape.
The hemp silk should be handled carefully. Gentle washing with mild detergent in the silk program and only a gentle spin 400 maintains the wonderful shine.
