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 Leanne Marshall “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • It uses a high proportion of lower-impact materials including upcycled materials, and it publishes an aggregate breakdown of materials used.
  • It uses lower-impact materials that help limit the chemicals, water, and wastewater in its supply chain.
  • It follows a slow fashion model such as limited production runs and seasonless products.
  • It manufactures its products closer to home to reduce the climate impact of long-distance shipping.
  • 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 Leanne Marshall “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • All of its final production stage happens in the United States of America.
  • It traces most of its supply chain.
  • It audits some of its supply chain including all of the final production stage.
  • 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 Leanne Marshall “Good”. There’s no evidence it uses animal products apart from silk.

Based on all publicly available information we’ve reviewed, we rate Leanne Marshall “Good” overall.
