Lillunn offers a range of iconic outerwear
in 100% pure new norwegian lambswool.
Lillunn was founded in 1953 by Norwegian designer Unn Søiland
Dale. She made high quality garments from wool blankets, and
was inspired by the traditions on cruise lines, like Hurtigruten, to
use blankets to stay warm on deck.

Lillunn have a history of
collaborations.
Beginning her fashion career in Paris in the 1950s as a model,
founder of Lillunn, Unn Søiland Dale, started her design
career with handknits like Marius, exporting handknits to
all over Europe. 30 years later, in the late 70s she picked up
her contacts in Paris and lead Lillunn to collaborate with french
fashion houses like Dior and Givenchy to whom she made most
advanced handknit collections. With Jean Charles de Castelbajac
she also started develop blanket collections of coats
and jackets, which is the prime production of Lillunn today.
The collections of Lillunn have been unique and successfull
across borders for more then 50 years and Søiland Dales
best designs are still in the collections.
