The Attributes
We've carefully vetted every product in the NET SUSTAIN edit to ensure that they meet at least one of five key attributes, and will continue to add more styles to the edit each season. These attributes take into account human, animal and environmental welfare and align with internationally recognized best practices in the fashion and beauty industries.
Locally Made
Discover the brands whose purpose and products are intimately connected to the place, provenance and people behind them.
This attribute indicates that at least 50 percent of a brand's products have been manufactured within their own community or country, demonstrating an investment in the local economy and environment.
Craft & Community
Craftsmanship lies at the heart of luxury, and this attribute celebrates products that showcase exceptional, artisanal skills or techniques and brands that adhere to fair trade principles and invest in communities.
The standards and certifications considered under this attribute include Fairtrade, Fair for Life, The World Fair Trade Organisation, and Fair Trade Certified.
Considered Materials
More and more of us are questioning the provenance of the materials and ingredients in the things we buy. A considered approach means sourcing materials and ingredients cultivated in a way that takes into account the welfare of people, animals and the environment.

Reducing Waste
Luxury shouldn't be wasteful. Whether it's products made with innovative regenerated or creatively upcycled, this is about celebrating brands that design with circularity in mind – including when it comes to their packaging.
