So far I have written to eleven companies and asked them questions about whether their clothes are produced ethically.
These companies are:
Next, Adams, Asda/George, Boden, Boots, Coast, Debenhams, Dorothy Perkins, Fat Face, French Connection and Gap
I have received six full responses so far from:
Next, Boden, Boots, Mosaic Fashions (inc Coast, Karen Millen, Oasis, Odille, Principles, The Shoe Studio, Warehouse and Whistles), Arcadia (inc Burton, Dorothy Perkins, Evans, Miss Selfridge, Outfit, Top Shop, Top Man and Wallis) and French Connection
Please see the ‘Next’, ’Boden’, ‘Boots’, ’Arcadia’, ‘Mosaic’ and ‘French Connection’ pages for details of their responses.
Boden very kindly rang me (although I wasn’t in) and wrote to me. The response from French Connection has arrived most recently.
Adams, Asda, Debenhams, Gap and sadly Fat Face are on my blacklist so far as I wrote to them months ago and have heard nothing back!
