Our ratings are based on a scale from 1 (We avoid) to 5 (Great) How we rate


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 Gergana Ivanova “It's a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • It uses few lower-impact materials.
  • To minimise waste, it limits its production runs.
  • There’s no evidence it’s taking meaningful action to reduce or eliminate hazardous chemicals in manufacturing.
  • There’s no evidence it’s taking meaningful action to reduce water use.

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 Gergana Ivanova “Not Good Enough”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • Its final production stage happens in the USA, a medium risk country for labour abuse.
  • It partly traces its Supply Chain including all of the final production stage.
  • There’s no evidence it ensures workers are paid living wages in its supply chain.
  • The brand claims to visit some of its supply chain but doesn’t specify what percentage.

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 Gergana Ivanova “Good”. It doesn’t appear to use animal-derived materials but doesn’t claim to be a vegan brand.

Based on all publicly available information we’ve reviewed, we rate Gergana Ivanova “It's a Start” overall.
