Lotus Moon is an ethical company. The fabrics we use for our clothes are inspired by eco friendly consumerism. We use fabrics like wild, uncultivated silk, which is cruelty free,hemp and polar fleece which is made of recycled plastic bottles to name just a few.
Where it all started ...
Initially we started of by having two shops within the Stables Market in Camden Town, London. However as the market fell victim to property developers and began to resemble more something out of an investment banking magazine rather than a creative hub for artists and designers we decided it was time to move on. We continued to exhibit our work at Fashion Shows and Trade Fairs as well as selling at Festivals. This approach gave us a new freedom to travel and to showcase our work to a wider range of people as well as to concentrate more on doing mail-order and wholesale.

We don't want to give away too much yet but we have decided to include a kidz range,too as we had so many requests for miniature versions of our designs. The new collection of mens / womens - & kidzwear will be available in Spring 2007. So watch this space!
Future outlook
We are planning to set up our own craft centre one day in an area that is less fortunate than we are in our developed world . We would like to teach local unemployed people the craft of pattern cutting, printing and embroidery thus bringing our designs to life whilst promoting and selling the products in the UK and the rest of Europe .
Finally, we would like to say thanks to everybody we have met over the summer.We got such an amazing response from you for our designs and we really appreciate your feedback. Hope to see you again in the future & thanks for visiting our website.
