Our Fabrics
The fabric is where every garment begins.
It's what you feel first ~ the softness against your skin, the way it moves with your body, and the comfort that invites you to wear it again and again. Long before a design takes shape, we're thinking about the natural fibres that will bring it to life and the qualities that make each material feel so effortless to wear.
From our signature fabrics to the principles that shape every new material we introduce, here’s a closer look at what we use, why we choose it, and how our fabric story continues to evolve.

Natural fibres are at the heart of Indigo Luna’s design philosophy. We favour them for their softness, breathability, and gentle feel against the skin, with consideration for both the body and the planet.
Versatility and comfort guide each piece, designed to transition effortlessly between yoga, travel, everyday life, and special occasions, while working together to create a wardrobe that feels timeless and intentional.
We want everything we make to feel beautiful to wear, allowing for ease of movement and comfort without restriction. Thoughtfully made to support the ever-evolving female body, these are pieces we hope you’ll reach for again and again.
Certifications can apply at different stages of a textile's journey ~ from the fibre itself, to the yarn and fabric.
Wherever possible, we source certified fibres through our trusted fabric suppliers. This means the raw material may have been grown and processed according to recognised environmental and social standards before it reaches our manufacturing partners.
We are loyal to our long-term local manufacturing partners here in Bali, but this has meant that not every stage of our supply chain currently holds the certifications required to carry that claim through to the finished garment. As a result, there are times when we're unable to describe a final product as certified, even though it has been made using certified fibres.
For many manufacturing partners the barrier to entry for achieving facility level certification can be costly and require significant investment, meaning it can be difficult at many levels of the supply chain. But, as certification becomes more accessible across our manufacturing network, we'll continue increasing the number of certified fabrics across our collections.
-
A "chain of custody" is the paper trail that proves certified materials stay certified at every step of their journey ~ grower, spinner, mill, factory, brand.
Each business that handles the goods holds its own in-date certification, and every hand-off between them is documented too. If even one link isn't certified, the trail breaks. And once it's broken, the finished garment can't carry the claim ~ even if the fibre started out certified.
-
GOTS certifies organic fibre content while also checking environmental and social practices ~ and it covers the whole supply chain, not just the farm.
For a finished garment to wear the GOTS label, every operator that touched it has to be GOTS-certified at facility level. That's the part worth understanding: our cotton can be genuinely certified organic, while the finished garment doesn't qualify for the GOTS label.
GOTS certification applies to organic farms and textile processing facilities globally, with certified operations across many countries including India, Turkey, Bangladesh, China, Peru, and parts of Africa. In our case, if GOTS sourcing is used, it generally means the cotton could originate from any of these certified organic regions, and the production will meet global organic standards ~ even if the finishing steps (like knitting) are done locally in Indonesia. -
LENZING™ is the company behind fibres like TENCEL™ and LENZING™ ECOVERO™. The raw material is wood, sourced under FSC and PEFC certification ~ which rules out endangered or protected forests.
These are man-made cellulosic fibres: the input is natural, but turning it into fabric is a manufactured process, which is why they can be classified as semi-synthetic. The difference is in how it's made. Conventional viscose uses harsh chemicals to break wood down into pulp. LENZING™ uses a closed-loop process that recovers and reuses its solvents instead of releasing them.
-
This one is about chemical safety. OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 tests the finished textile (the yarn, the dye, whatever applies to that specific fabric) against a list of 1,000+ regulated and unregulated chemicals.
It tells you the product in your hands is free from harmful chemical residue. It says nothing about how or where the fibre was grown, or the fabric made. So it sits alongside fibre certifications like GOTS~ it doesn't replace it.
Where this certification comes from depends on the fabric:
- On our LENZING™ fabrics: it's already in place upstream. LENZING™ fibres are tested and OEKO-TEX® certified at the source, and that certification carries forward into the finished fabric ~ so the certification travels with the fibre.
- On our conventional cotton: there's no certified fibre to inherit from, so it's earned directly at our mill. It's our specific dyed fabric ~ at that dye lot, at that mill ~ that gets tested and certified, not the raw cotton.
-
Both our Plant Viscose and TENCEL™ Modal yarns are sourced from responsibly managed forests across various countries. Where applicable, this sourcing is backed by third-party forest certification (such as FSC or PEFC), which helps verify that raw materials aren’t coming from endangered or protected forest areas.
As our fabric offering continues to evolve, natural fibres will always remain at the heart of our collections, with an increasing focus on organic materials wherever suitable options are available. For blended fabrics, our aim is for the primary fibre to be organic whenever possible.
As we work towards this, we'll continue partnering with the trusted suppliers we've built long-term relationships with, while steadily increasing the proportion of certified materials within our collections as they become more accessible. In particular, we'll continue seeking opportunities to incorporate more organic certified fabrics without compromising the values and partnerships that underpin the way we create.
Alongside our signature Plant Viscose, we'll continue introducing thoughtfully selected natural fabrics, new textures, and refined fabric weights that expand our fabric offering while remaining true to the softness, femininity, and effortless feel that define Indigo Luna.
Every new material will be chosen with intention ~ whether for its drape, breathability, warmth, texture, structure, or durability. We'll continue prioritising fabrics that can be worn across timeless silhouettes and multiple collections, supporting a more considered wardrobe of pieces designed to be worn, loved, and lived in for years to come.
