Lumisca in the Press
The fabric made headlines before the label did.
Years before Lumisca, founder Meghna Ghodawat patented Tan Ban® — a sun-protective vegan silk with UPF 50+ woven into the fibre itself. Her idea was simple and slightly heretical: sun protection you wear, not apply. The press took notice. Lumisca is what that innovation grew into.
VOGUE INDIA
“Would you ditch your daily sunscreen for a sun-protection scarf?”
Vogue India examined Tan Ban® as a skincare trend — a luxury scarf with UPF 50+ built into the weave, shielding the face, neck and décolletage from the UVA and UVB exposure behind pigmentation and premature ageing. Sunscreen fades by lunch; a woven UPF rating doesn’t.

“A luxury scarf designed to replace your sunscreen”
The London-based fashion-technology journal profiled Meghna’s Tan Ban® as a beauty-tech innovation out of India: a soft, breathable vegan silk engineered for near-total UVA/UVB blockage, with a share of every sale committed to wildlife conservation and women’s empowerment.

Meghna also writes on sustainable textiles as a contributing author for Fibre2Fashion, the global textile-industry journal.
Today, Tan Ban® lives across the Lumisca wardrobe alongside Mul Mul Cotton and Botanical Linen — three fabrics, one philosophy: dress for long days in the light.
