Lucrezia Moro is a textile artist born in Rome who now lives in the countryside far from the capital. She began participating in a sustainability and natural food project at 20 years old and decided to leave the city to live closer to nature. In doing so, she discovered the world of natural dyeing and took some introductory courses to learn the basics. At 29, she transformed this interest into a full-blown career by devoting herself to dyeing and making knit garments.

Lucrezia later founded her own brand, Bilulu, which specializes in naturally dyed hand-knit clothing. She also shares her knowledge of knitting, dyeing, embroidery, and mending by teaching classes to others eager to learn. She recently launched her second clothing collection dyed 100% with native, seasonal plants.
