Our social responsability
Like most global fashion brands, we do not own the mills, factories, and production facilities that make our fabrics and garments. Yet we see it as our responsibility to ensure workers in our supply chain have good working conditions and fair pay. Our strategy has always focused on working with a limited number of suppliers and developing strong, long-term relationships so we can make responsible procurement a reality. From the outset, we established robust policies outlining our commitments to human rights and environmental due diligence, making clear the standards we expect our suppliers to adhere to. Over the years, we have developed several internal tools and mapped and collected site-specific data, laying the groundwork for our ongoing due diligence processes. In 2023, we significantly enhanced our internal tools and processes. Guided by the OECD due diligence framework, we standardised our data collection methods to align with industry standards. This led us to the development of a robust Human Rights and Environmental Due Diligence (HREDD) policy, which replaces our previous Responsible Business Conduct (RBC) policy, introduced in 2022.
Our policies:
• Code of Conduct • Human Rights and Environmental Due Diligence policy:
- Responsible Purchasing Practices policy - Responsible Supplier Onboarding policy - Responsible Supplier Exit policy
Our onboarding tools:
