FOUNDER DIARIES
DENIM DEBUT
We've been working on something we're incredibly excited to share.
For the first time, Ilio Nema enters denim with a capsule collection of four distinct silhouettes, each crafted in 100% cotton twill and hand tie-dyed using a shibori-inspired technique - each piece completely one of a kind.
Our first-ever denim collection. Four limited-edition silhouettes. No two pieces exactly the same.
"The ILIO NEMA denim capsule is about standing out in style with purpose at heart, combining our love for the planet with our belief in contemporary, modern wardrobe essentials"
- Ariane Leondaridis, co-founder
"Our denim is crafted to go back to the soil with natural fibres, and natural dyes: it's modern sustainability through the lens of ancestral traditions"
- Ariane Leondaridis, co-founder
DENIM DEBUT
LIMITED EDITION
Every garment is individually folded, bound and tied by hand before being submerged in natural indigo dye. A multi-step craft where no two pieces emerge the same.
DENIM DEBUT
one of a kind
Each piece emerges with its own living pattern of real indigo, terracotta and white — completely one of a kind.
