Facettes Studio

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 Facettes Studio “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It uses a high proportion of lower-impact materials including deadstock materials.
• Its use of lower-impact materials minimises chemicals, water, and wastewater in production.
• It manufactures its products closer to home to reduce the climate impact of long-distance shipping.
• It follows a slow fashion model such as limited production runs and seasonless products.
• There’s no evidence it takes action to minimise its packaging, which is a driver of plastic waste.

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 Facettes Studio “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• Its final production stage happens in France, a low risk country for labour abuse.
• It traces most of its supply chain.
• It visits some of its suppliers but does not state how often.
• There’s no evidence it has a Code of Conduct.
• There’s no evidence it ensures workers are paid living wages in its supply chain.

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 Facettes Studio “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It uses recycled wool in all of its wool products.
• It doesn’t appear to use leather, exotic animal hair, down, fur, angora, or exotic animal skin.
