What Made to Order Means at LAUNIL

When you place an order with us, your piece usually does not come off a shelf. There is no warehouse of finished collections waiting to be sold. Most LAUNIL pieces begin only once someone has chosen them.

What Happens After You Order

Your order comes directly to our studio in Lithuania.

The linen is laid out and the pattern pieces for your garment are arranged on the fabric, then cut. Each piece is sewn and finished by us.

Once complete, the garment is washed and dried. This gives the linen its softness, so your piece arrives ready to wear from the very first day.

It is then checked, packed and sent on its way to you.

Please allow up to seven business days before dispatch. Occasionally, the piece you have chosen may already be ready in our studio. When it is, we can usually dispatch it within 1–2 business days.

Why We Work This Way

Most clothing is produced long before anyone chooses it. Quantities are decided months in advance, based on forecasts of what people might want.

We chose to work differently. We make according to what has actually been ordered, keep only a small number of finished pieces, and avoid making garments that may never be worn.

It changes how we think about the fabric itself. We cut linen for pieces that have a purpose, and give each order the time it needs to be made properly.

It may be a slower way of making clothes. But it is one we believe in.

What It Means for You

There may be a few more days between placing your order and seeing it leave our studio.

That time is not spent waiting for a product to arrive from somewhere else. It is the time in which your piece is being made.

Cut. Sewn. Washed. Dried. Checked. Packed. All here in Lithuania.

Why You Won't Find Seasonal Sales Here

Because we do not produce large quantities of seasonal stock, we do not depend on end-of-season sales to clear what remains.

Our prices reflect the fabric, work and making of each piece, all year round.

A LAUNIL piece is not designed for one season, and its value does not change simply because the calendar does.

Made for You

Linen was once grown, spun and woven close to home, often for the people who would wear it.

The way we make clothes today is very different. But something in that older way still feels right to us: knowing why something is being made before making it.

Made to order is our way of keeping a little of that closeness.
