Dolce & Gabbana

Our “Planet” rating evaluates brands based on the environmental policies in their supply chains, from carbon emissions and wastewater to business models and product circularity. Here we rate Dolce & Gabbana “It's a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It uses few lower-impact materials, and it does not publish an aggregate breakdown of materials used.
• It’s eliminated some hazardous chemicals but has not made a commitment to eliminate all hazardous chemicals in manufacturing.
• It’s set a science based target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in both its direct operations and supply chain but there’s no evidence it is on track.
• It uses low-waste cutting techniques to maximise fabric use.
• There’s no evidence it’s set a target to manage water use in its supply chain.

Workers’ rights are central to our “People” rating, which assess brands’ policies and practices on everything from child labour to living wages and gender equality. Here we rate Dolce & Gabbana “Not Good Enough”. Unfortunately, Dolce & Gabbana does not publish sufficient information on the most critical labour issues. You have a right to know how the products you buy affect the issues you care about.

Brands’ animal welfare policies and, where applicable, how well they trace their animal-derived products are the focus of our “Animals” rating. Here we rate Dolce & Gabbana “Very Poor”. Unfortunately, Dolce & Gabbana does not publish sufficient information on the most critical animal issues. You have a right to know how the products you buy affect the issues you care about.

Based on all publicly available information we’ve reviewed, we rate Dolce & Gabbana “Not Good Enough” overall.
