At JANICE, we believe that luxury and sustainability go hand in hand. Our collections are designed with an eye for quality, timelessness, and responsibility. This sustainability policy describes how we, as a brand, make conscious choices at every step of our process—from design to delivery and beyond.

JANICE was founded on a clear conviction: fashion can be beautiful without coming at the expense of people or the environment. We design timeless collections that last for seasons, made from carefully selected materials. Quality over quantity—that is our guiding principle.

CONSCIOUS DESIGN
Our collections are timeless and versatile. We don’t design disposable fashion, but pieces that last for multiple seasons and can be styled in various ways. By investing in quality and fit, we reduce the likelihood that products will be discarded after a short time.

CAREFUL MATERIAL SELECTION
We select our fabrics and materials with an eye for quality and sustainability. Every product comes with a care label, so our customers can maintain their items properly and extend their lifespan.

RESPONSIBLE PACKAGING
Our shipping packaging is as compact and lightweight as possible, without compromising the protection of your order. We actively work to reduce packaging materials and use recyclable alternatives.

LOCAL PRODUCTION AND SHORT SUPPLY CHAINS
Where possible, we collaborate with European production partners to minimize transport distances. Short supply chains not only mean lower CO₂ emissions but also greater control over working conditions and product quality.

We are seeing a growing trend in the fashion industry of “wardrobing”—ordering items with the intention of returning them after brief use. This leads to additional transport movements, CO₂ emissions, and loss of value. Therefore:

– We encourage exchanges and store credit as alternatives to refunds for SALE items–
Return shipping costs are the customer’s responsibility, to encourage more mindful ordering
behavior – We advise customers to visit our BRANDSTORE or retail locations in advance for sizing
advice– We provide detailed product information and sizing advice on our online
store– We, of course, always respect the legal 14-day right of withdrawal

See our Exchanges & Returns page for a full explanation and step-by-step instructions.

Sustainability is an ongoing process. In addition to what we are already doing, we are actively working on the following initiatives:

SMARTER SIZING ADVICE — We are developing improved sizing advice on our online store, based on product specifications and customer feedback, to reduce the number of incorrect sizes—and thus unnecessary returns.

TRANSPARENCY ABOUT RETURN IMPACT — We want to make our customers aware of the environmental impact of returns. In the future, we’ll show the costs and CO₂ emissions of return shipments in your customer account, so you can make an informed choice.

REWARD MODEL FOR CONSCIOUS ORDERING — We are developing a model where customers who order consciously—and return less—are rewarded with benefits such as lower or free return shipping costs.

CIRCULAR THINKING — We’re exploring ways to give our products a second life, for example through a pre-loved program or repair service.

AI-DRIVEN PERSONALIZED ADVICE — We’re investing in smarter technology to provide personalized advice on size, fit, and styling in our online store. This helps you find the right item faster and reduces the likelihood of a return.

Sustainability isn’t a one-way street. We invite our customers to join us in making more conscious choices:

– Shop mindfully — use our sizing guide and review product details carefully–
Try on at home as you would in a store — with care and respect for the product–
Consider exchanging instead of returning–
Care for your JANICE items according to the included care label–
Give your item a second life if you no longer wear it
