“For more than 60 years, our lingerie sets have been designed to last much longer than just one season. Quality is one of the brand’s founding values. At Aubade, we cultivate excellence à la française, attaching great importance to defending and showcasing the artisans we work alongside. Calais lace workers and European embroiderers are the heirs of long-established corsetry know-how. We are incredibly mindful of our choice of materials: all of our textile materials are OEKO-TEX® certified. We verify their origin, work with ethical suppliers and do not use animal-derived materials. Aubade has Global Recycled Standard (GRS) certification which guarantees textiles recycled in line with environmental and social criteria, as well as Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) certification for the organic fibres in the forthcoming autumn–winter 2023 collections.
Our PEFC- and FSC-certified packaging is made from wood fibres from sustainably-managed forests.”
Recycled materials: reinvented materials, the height of elegance
To ensure our planet remains beautiful, we decided to take up a new challenge. With our recycled lines, innovation and sustainable development go hand in hand. After swimwear and menswear, lingerie has become eco-friendly with 100% recycled main materials. Aubade aims to develop 50% of its collections with recycled materials by 2026. Polyamide thread and polyester embroidery thread are developed from production offcuts which are reused and put back into production as part of a zero-waste approach.
Aubade is committed to a more UNITED society
Equality and the Fight against Discrimination
“We have made combating discrimination a key part of our corporate human resources management policy. By signing a diversity charter, we have demonstrated our commitment to cultural, ethical and social pluralism. We firmly believe that diversity is a source of enrichment, and promote equal opportunities. The steady increase in employee numbers underlines AUBADE’s excellent brand image.”
Women’s Health
“Investing in women’s health was an obvious choice. We are engaged in the fight against breast cancer. AUBADE supports the charity Ruban Rose which raises awareness about the importance of early screening and helps fund research. Pink October is the focal point of this drive. During the month, we organise a prevention campaign and an AUBADE Paris team takes part in the Odysséa charity walk. We also donate 10% of our October sales of the Lovessence line to Ruban Rose. In 2022, to further strengthen our commitment, we organised the first charity auction of our legendary black and white visuals with all of the proceeds going to Ruban Rose.”
