Lanius crafts this feminine top from pure merino wool sourced from certified organic animal husbandry. The fine jersey fabric feels pleasantly light and soft against the skin, providing warmth while also regulating body temperature. The figure-hugging top hugs the contours without constricting, and the deep V-neckline at the front and back, trimmed with delicate floral lace, gives it an elegant touch.

The work of fashion label Lanius is influenced by three factors: first, a style characterised by sophisticated designs and forms, secondly the use of certified raw materials and thirdly the guarantee that all garments have been produced under fair working conditions. Depending on the garment, one factor may get centre stage, but the other factors don’t move out of the focus – however, importance is always attached to outstanding quality both in terms of materials and finish. The label was founded in 1999 by Claudia Lanius, who works on all her ideas and designs in her Cologne studio; she has them developed by her team and then assembled by producers in several countries.
