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.

Coco & Kandy

Bulgaria

Coco & Kandy is a Bulgarian brand that makes resort wear and wardrobe staples for women. The range includes dresses, tops, T-shirts and swimwear with clean, minimalist lines.

The brand says it uses only responsibly sourced natural fabrics. It aims to make clothing that lasts longer than a single season, and it describes itself as committed to slow fashion. Good On You rates Coco & Kandy Good overall. Its planet score is Good: the brand limits production runs, manufactures close to home and uses recyclable packaging, though it does not publish a breakdown of its materials. Its people and animals scores are It's a Start. The brand traces most of its supply chain and visits suppliers. However, Good On You found no evidence of a living wage commitment or an animal welfare policy, and notes the brand uses wool and cashmere.

United Kingdom

THTC is a UK streetwear brand that makes organic hemp T-shirts, hoodies, socks, caps and tank tops for men and women, including unisex styles. Its premium-weight hemp T-shirts carry graphic designs.

Most of its materials are lower-impact, including organic hemp. Renewable energy powers its own offices and stores, though not its suppliers, and the brand ships without plastic packaging. Its Code of Conduct covers the ILO's four fundamental freedoms, and the whole final production stage is audited. Part of the supply chain is GOTS certified. Good On You found no evidence of living wages. The brand states that its whole range is vegan.

The Ethical Silk Company

Ireland

The Ethical Silk Company makes mulberry silk sleepwear, loungewear and accessories for women and men. The range includes pyjamas, robes, slips, camisole sets, tops, scarves, eye masks and pillowcases. The brand began in Dublin and also has a presence in the UK and the US. The brand uses only peace silk, also called Ahimsa silk. With this method the silk is taken from the cocoon only after the moth has left, so the silkworm is not killed. Its silk comes from a family business in India led by Rajaiah Kusuma. The team says it knows its suppliers in north and south India and visits them regularly. It describes its supply chain as simple and transparent, and it focuses on fair treatment of workers and on clothing that lasts. Good On You rates the brand Good overall. It scores 4 out of 5 for planet, 3 for people and 4 for animals. Good On You notes limited production runs, efforts to reduce packaging and rainwater capture in the supply chain. It also notes there is no evidence of living wages or emissions reductions.
