Brandy Melville
Category: Clothing
Sustainability: 🌱 1/5
Affordability: 💸 3.5/5
Affordability Assessment
💵 | Price Range: 15$ - 150$
The brand is a budget-friendly option that provides a large range of relatively priced clothing.
📈 | Value for Money: OK
The brand uses decent quality materials, a reflection of the price. It mostly uses cotton, an upgrade from the mostly polyester garments other fast-fashion brands create. However, it has detrimental practices that lower the value for money.
💡 | Affordability Tools Unfortunately, Brandy Melville does not offer any ways to make it more affordable. They almost never go on sale, but they do offer coupon codes sometimes.
Sustainability Assessment
🌍 | Environmental Impact
The brand, as a fast-fashion brand, has a negative impact on the environment and doesn't do much at all to offset the damages they cause.
🤝 | Labor Conditions
How ethical is the brand’s production process?
Brandy Melville has given nearly no information on its production process, becoming an outlier amongst the fast-fashion brands, as even Shein has published some sort of page on its conditions. However, it is well known that Brandy Melville discriminants against plus-size workers and people of color.
🐾 | Animal Welfare:
The brand doesn’t use many animal products, instead focusing on having mostly 100% cotton as their fabric.
