Anekdot

Germany

Anekdot is a Berlin upcycling brand that makes lingerie, swimwear, loungewear and accessories in limited editions. Its designs mix a nostalgic feel with everyday comfort. The brand reuses high-quality fabrics that have never been worn, such as surplus stock, end-of-line goods, offcuts and materials with minor flaws. Most of these come from an Italian supplier certified to OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 and holding GRS certification. Smaller amounts come from local designers, Italian deadstock and vintage markets. Patterns are cut by hand so the team can work around defects. Pieces are made in the brand's own Berlin atelier and at a small, women-led workshop in Poland. Good On You rates Anekdot Great overall, with Great scores for both planet and people. It notes that the brand limits production runs, avoids plastic packaging, partners with women-owned businesses and pays a living wage in final production. Animals is not rated because the products are generally free of animal-derived materials.

Eco Intimates

Australia

Eco Intimates is an Australian label that makes lingerie, underwear, bras, sleepwear and loungewear for women. Its fabrics include GOTS certified organic cotton, bamboo, silk and natural cotton. Many of its bras are wire-free, and its ruffle knickers are among its best-known pieces. Designer and founder Madonna Bain creates every pattern at home on the Northern NSW Coast. The pieces are made in small batches by small, female-led workshops in Bali, Indonesia, and she works closely with them on new designs. She says slow production gives her time to check quality and to refine styles based on what customers tell her. Good On You rates Eco Intimates Good overall, with 4 out of 5 for both planet and people. The rating mentions its use of lower-impact materials, limited production runs, recyclable packaging and partnerships with women artisans. It also says final production takes place in a country with a high risk of labour abuse. Good On You found no evidence that the brand ensures living wages across most of its supply chain.

It makes sleepwear, loungewear, intimates, bra tops and everyday clothing in sizes from XS to 4X, and releases its pieces in small, limited-edition drops. Its clothing is made from OEKO-TEX certified Lenzing Tencel lyocell. Spandex makes up less than 10% of the fabric, and the brand says it plans to switch to a plant-based version once one is widely available. Prints use water-based inks, and dyeing takes place in a GOTS certified dye house. Every step, from knitting to finishing, happens in downtown Los Angeles. The brand says all its makers are paid a guaranteed living wage. Fabric scraps are recycled, damaged pieces are sold as seconds, and packaging is plastic-free and made from recycled paper. A portion of profits from each drop goes to a charity. Good On You rates Purusha People Good overall: Great for planet and animals, since its whole range is vegan, and It's a Start for people. Good On You notes that the brand does not define what it means by a living wage.
