LIILA's Founder:
At 15 years old, our founder was driven by an unwavering passion for sustainability and a determination to break free from the clutches of fast fashion, and so she embarked on a mission to make a difference. Realizing how the fashion industry often targets young people, she recognized the urgent need for change. Drawing inspiration from her love for fashion and a strong commitment to eco-friendliness, she set out to create LIILA, a brand that combines style with responsible practices.
She presented at the prestigious Social Impact Investment & Sustainability Conference, captivating over 5 million viewers. The United Nations and UNIDO recognized her outstanding efforts, honoring her as the Global Youth Ambassador of SDG & Carbon Neutrality Activity.
Motivated by the response to her ideas, she immersed herself in extensive research to source sustainable fabrics. She understood that every choice mattered, from materials to production methods, and delved deep into learning the best sustainable practices. It was a journey filled with challenges, but fueled by her passion, she embraced every obstacle as an opportunity to create something truly remarkable. Her dedication shone through as she carefully curated each piece, ensuring it aligned with the brand's sustainable values.
LIILA was born out of a dream to make sustainable clothing accessible to everyone. Our founder firmly believes that eco-conscious fashion should be affordable and readily available, empowering individuals to make mindful choices for the planet without breaking the bank.
As the heart and soul of LIILA, she aspires to take the brand to greater heights, reaching a broader audience and becoming an influential voice in the sustainable fashion movement. With every stride she takes, she envisions LIILA as a catalyst for change, inspiring other young minds to challenge the norms, foster a conscious lifestyle, and create a better, greener world.
