Welcome to Mia Luna!
The Mia Luna atelier is located in the historical selenite quarry which built the city of Bologna. This ancient stone has a rich history as a building material throughout the history of Italy, including its use for creating "glass" windows is churches.
Selenite represents the history of sustainable and traditional architecture in the history of Italy and this is how the "spirit of selenite" represents our brand's mission: to create sustainable clothing with weaves that are organic, recycled or repurposed.
Our organic weaves are locally made here in Italy to avoid shipping from abroad. Sometimes I pack up organic repurposed fabric in my suitcase when visiting California to bring back to Bologna.
Our fashion photography is always done geographically to where I'm presently at the moment. I do many of my shoots locally here in Italy and when visiting my home city San Diego, I carry my samples with me and do model shoots there as well. In fact you'll notice some of my photos are at beaches in San Diego or studio shot done here in Bologna, Italy.
Our clothing collection was designed as a large capsule collection where our patterns can be used in various ways, mixing and matching with other patterns. This allows us to use low impact productions methods.
I also consider sustainability in offering a product that people want to buy new and not second-hand: Yoga wear, intimate wear and swimwear.

My team: My pattern maker and sample tailor have 30 years experience in Italian swimwear and have developed products for major Italian brands including La Perla. Italy's vast variety of body shapes have made it possible for me to offer a product that looks good on every body. Not only are you showing your love for the planet by wearing Mia Luna but you will also be beach beautiful!

As a Kundalini Yoga teacher and Fine Artist the story behind the clothing actually started with my series of prints: dedicated to the properties of selenite as a meditation stone for the higher chakras and an angel stone.-which all made the connection with the name of my street: via dell'Angelo Custode (Guardian Angel Stone).
Taking the selenite rock I began with hand drawn mandalas inspired by tapestries I've collected from around the world: tapestries represent the woven nature of life and of our own being as mind-body-soul. Like the making of a paper snowflake my Mia Luna featured logo "Selenite Mandala" turned out to be a tessellation pattern of angel wings emitting its very nature as an Angel Stone. Following the Selenite mandala, I created its logo compliment, Sole, balancing the moon's energy.

In my store you'll find paintings and prints inspired by the selenite stone and beyond> the 5 universal elements, the 7 chakras and elaborations on symbols like the Hamsa Hand.
Available as prints on my clothing or wall art to add harmony into your living space.

My goal is to create ecological fashion that can change the mindset of buying clothing: with sustainable fabric and long lasting pieces that my customers will love and keep.
