Our Story
Supernaturae is the culmination of years of research into alternative methods of production. Initially established as a clothing line, the brand has evolved into a multifaceted venture that combines a rural supply chain, immersive experiences, and textile workshops with a focus on natural textiles and local natural dyes.
The origins of supernaturae trace back to its founder’s, Benedicte Lux, research into artisanal processes and her background in Art History. After studying at Central St Martins & Parsons, Beni embarked on a journey of exploration and collaboration with artisans. The desire was to create timeless pieces, collectibles, of living history, highlighting incredible workmanship that is closely tied to nature. The result is a unique project that is of a quality seldom seen.
Today, the brand's unwavering dedication to empowering artisans, preserving traditional craftsmanship, and creating positive social impact has positioned it as a revered presence within the conscious fashion community, winning the Social Impact Project of the Year with LAFS in 2025.
We’re proud to be part of a small, conscious shift toward sustainable practices - ones that embrace the Earth as both creator and eventual resting place of the fabrics we choose.
We believe in sustainable, slow, and artisanal fashion. Our pieces are made with the intention to endure, to be passed down, and to eventually return to the soil with grace.
India
We work across India with hand weavers, who have retained and perfected the knowledge of creating fabric by hand. Incredibly soft and delicate, we work with linen, silk and sometimes cotton.
We natural dye with two communities, dedicated to the research and preservation of the art of creating colour from natural materials.
Mexico
The Sierra Norte region of Oaxaca includes the Sierra Juarez, the Sierra Mixe, and parts of the Chinantla and the Sierra Mazateca, which together form the central and southeastern part of the Sierra Madre de Oaxaca.
We collaborate with Wen Do Sed – one of the only communities that work with silk in Mexico. A Zapotec family-run enterprise, conformed by artists and masters of their craft, they work with and from natural cycles to produce. They also work directly with the raw material: silkworm cocoons.
