Lemuel MC

Lemuel MC is a brand with a story to tell about linen, ethics, transparency and longevity. Founder Marta is a passionate advocate for a more sustainable way of life, stripping away complexity and working exclusively with linen and what exists wherever possible. Linen, layers, pleats, pockets and poppers; the signature DNA that gives Lemuel MC ageless appeal Linen for its sustainability credentials, layering for year round wear and multiple styling options, pleats for form and structural detail, and metal poppers for their infinite recycling capabilities, easy wear and detachment for recycling… everything carefully considered. On all the trousers there are even two popper positions: one for before dinner and one for after, genius. Linen is a woefully underestimated fabric that Lemuel MC exclusively shines the spotlight on…Flax from which linen is made is a brilliant crop, incredibly resilient meaning minimal pesticide intervention, and able to grow using far less water than cotton (6.4 litres vs 2,700 litres for cotton).

The entire plant can be woven into fibre or used meaning minimal waste whilst also being biodegradable and recyclable, incredibly strong and breathable with natural thermal properties, the fibre is biodegradable and recyclable. It is a chameleon of a fabric which can compete with wool, denim, cotton and silks without the associated environmental impacts and humanitarian impacts. All \Lemuel MC patterns are original, created through organic development and finalised using what already exists; charity shop wallpaper finds that provide the required materials structure but remove the use of new materials, treading lightly on the planet.
