Sustainability
IT'S ONLY THE BEGINNING
Club L is a brand with impact; committed to the championing of women, and the vital change for our planet. As we take these first steps in our sustainability journey, we accept our place in an ever-evolving industry built on newness and consumption and embrace our moral obligation to progress to a more meaningful, positive future for all. A future that brings transparency to customers, respect for our earth and high-quality products designed consciously.
This is our purpose and our promise.
“I saw a need for a brand that enables all women to celebrate themselves. From growing up in this industry, I found a lack of accessible luxury, unique statement designs and exceptional fit. With the same bold ambition for change, I’ve built something that is taking control from design to delivery and striving to support all women within business, partnerships and beyond. We are not perfect and never claim to be, but we can take the first steps to creating a more positive impact for our product, our planet and our people.”
- Katie Randev, CEO

Let’s make this change together, share your ideas on how we can create a long-lasting future for luxury fashion.
OUR PLANET
We have always approached creation thoughtfully, consciously, and at a mindful pace, avoiding overproduction.
LEARN MORE
To reduce waste, we prioritise using more sustainable materials, with at least 50% certified recycled or responsibly sourced content in our labels and packaging. Our mailing bags are reusable, and made from circular conclusions, cutting down on new plastic production and pollution.
For UK customers, we offer low-impact delivery options, including Royal Mail and DPD. As part of our environmental commitment, we are working to measure our carbon footprint (GHG Scope 1, 2, 3) and actively reduce CO2 emissions across all operations.
Since 2023, we've transitioned to paperless invoicing, saving over 400,000 sheets of paper-equivalent to approximately one ton, or 30 to 40 trees.
OUR PRODUCT
We create exceptional-quality pieces designed to be cherished for a lifetime.
LEARN MORE
Our goal is to extend the life of our products by promoting responsible consumption and encouraging customers to make informed, thoughtful purchases supported by eco-friendly aftercare tips.
Through repair, restoration, and circular practices, we ensure that 9 out of 10 of our products are re-sellable. The remaining items are meticulously refreshed using our spot wash and ozone machine, restoring them to near-perfect condition for Depop.
Our commitment to reducing landfill waste continues with the launch of our official Depop account, where pre-loved styles, end-of-stock items, and one-off samples find new homes.
OUR PEOPLE
We take pride in our exceptional team and the loyal customers who share our vision, confidence, and passion.
