A Polish brand with a mission – how Luma Milanówek pays tribute to great Poles in silk
Luma Milanówek, a local brand from the outskirts of nearby Warsaw, draws on over a century of Polish silk-making tradition. It stands out not only for the quality and distinctive design of its products, but also for its remarkable mission: to celebrate and promote Polish heritage.
One of the most symbolic expressions of this mission is a series of silk scarves and pocket squares dedicated to people who have left an enduring mark on Polish – and global – history: Fryderyk Chopin, Maria Skłodowska-Curie, Adam Mickiewicz, and Wisława Szymborska. The brand also offers a fountain pen adorned with amber and bearing Chopin’s surname.
Each design goes beyond fashion – it is an artistic narrative that tells the story of these extraordinary lives, their achievements, and their legacy. It is, above all, a tribute in silk to the greatness of Polish culture.
Luma Milanówek proves that Poland has much to offer the world – not only through craftsmanship, but through the brilliance of minds that shaped science, literature and music. The brand openly draws inspiration from the admiration these figures command abroad – particularly in Japan, where Skłodowska-Curie and Chopin are regarded as icons of intellectual and spiritual strength.
A silk scarf depicting moments from Chopin’s life? It is not just a beautiful accessory – it is a story of Poland. And it is a story Luma Milanówek tells with pride and reverence.
