About

Sōlune (so-loon), sometimes written as Solune, is a premium loungewear brand of satin sets designed to move with women from day to night. Named for the light in Beachwood Canyon in Los Angeles — sol, the sun, and lune, the moon — each piece is crafted from custom-woven Beachwood Satin ™  made from sustainable viscose yarns to evoke the look and feel of silk, where color comes alive in the light.

Designer Denise Rae Gertmenian was inspired to create Sōlune when she found a vintage silk sample from her design archive — a longline piece that informed a new way of effortless, throw-on dressing. During the pandemic, as athleisure became the default, she wanted something more elevated — pieces that felt light on the body, with breathability in the silhouette, while still looking refined and put together. This unrestricting piece helped her get dressed quickly in the morning and build an effortless uniform on repeat. It flowed from working at home to running errands and travel — a system for life in motion that also allowed for rest in between.

Denise spent a decade working as a designer in New York, where she also launched Rae, beginning with deadstock fabrics from the garment district and evolving into a printed silk collection featuring original artwork designed in-house. Rae was worn by Fergie, Selma Blair, and Gayle King during her interview with Michelle Obama at the Democratic National Convention — women who embody confidence and the presence that clothing is meant to inspire. Select pieces from Rae now live on through Reclaimé — an upcycled, made-to-order collection. Today, Sōlune brings ease and quiet elevation to the way women dress — fluid, considered, and lived in.
