In every step of our supply chain, we keep future generations in mind as we commit to minimizing our waste and carbon footprint. For what we cannot reduce ourselves, we invest in initiatives and partners that are specialized in conserving biodiversity. Continually re-evaluating and further reducing Love Stories&#x2019; impact on climate change is our top priority.</span></p></div><div data-appearance="default" data-content-type="text" data-element="main" data-pb-style="AKIDGIF" style="box-sizing: inherit; overflow-wrap: break-word; margin-left: 10px; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: &quot;Aktiv Grotesk&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 300; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"><p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Inter;"><br></span></p><p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Inter; font-size: 14px;"><u>Packaging</u></span></p><p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Inter; font-size: 14px;"><br></span></p><p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Inter; font-size: 14px;">We use FSC&#xAE;-certified paper for all Love Stories packaging and labeling &#x2014; from the shipping boxes in our warehouses down to the hangtags in our boutiques. Individual items are safely protected by biodegradable polybags.<br style="box-sizing: inherit;"><br style="box-sizing: inherit;"><span style="box-sizing: inherit;"><em><strong>&quot;We use biodegradable polybags, recycled plastic shipping bags, and FSC-certified carton boxes to ship our packages of love to your home.&quot;</strong></em></span><br style="box-sizing: inherit;"><br style="box-sizing: inherit;">Did you order online? We ship our orders in FSC&#xAE; cardboard boxes with a recycled plastic sleeve, so that you can re-use your durable Love Stories box for storage, to assort lingerie, or assort accessories at home.</span></p><p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Inter; font-size: 14px;"><br></span></p><p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Inter; font-size: 14px;"><u>Reducing returns</u></span></p><p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Inter; font-size: 14px;"><br></span></p><p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Inter; font-size: 14px;">Every webshop return doubles a package&#x2019;s carbon emissions. Therefore, in 2021, we introduced a detailed return analysis system; customer feedback helps us to adjust product descriptions, customer experience, and even the product itself. We also introduced the Bralette Fit Finder to provide customized fit and size recommendations, minimizing the need to order extra sizes, which ultimately leads to fewer returns.</span></p><p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Inter; font-size: 14px;"><br></span></p><p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px;"><span style="box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 16px; font-family: Inter;"><strong>Made with Love: h<em style="box-sizing: inherit;">ow your garments are created</em></strong></span></p><p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Inter; font-size: 14px;"><br></span></p><p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Inter; font-size: 14px;">A big part of the environmental impact of our company, is determined by key choices we make in the design process of our garments. From the recycled, organic, recyclable and biodegradable qualities of the materials we use, down to the colours, hand painted prints and finishes we add: they shape up how durable and sustainable an item is in the long run. Additionally, we provide solutions for ideal care, to help customers wear and care for garments in ways that extend their lifespan.</span></p><p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Inter; font-size: 14px;"><br></span></p><p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Inter; font-size: 14px;"><u>Material choices</u><br><br></span></p><p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Inter; font-size: 14px;">In our Spring/Summer 2020 collection, we started using recycled yarn fabrics in our swimwear styles. In Autumn/Winter 2020 we also rolled this out into the lingerie collection, using recycled yarns in fabrics, lace and elastics. In 2021, we expanded into the ready-to-wear collection, using recycled polyesters as well as certified organic cotton.<br style="box-sizing: inherit;"><br style="box-sizing: inherit;"><span style="box-sizing: inherit;"><strong><em>&quot;We&#x2019;ve developed our own micro fabric with recycled yarns.&quot;</em></strong></span><em><strong><br style="box-sizing: inherit;"></strong></em><br style="box-sizing: inherit;">Many of our fabrics are custom developed by Love Stories in close collaboration with our suppliers. Besides their durability and sustainability, we hold our materials to high standards in terms of support, softness and refinement, so that every woman feels comfortable and beautiful wearing them.</span></p><h3 data-collapsible="true" data-element="summary" data-role="collapsible" id="isPasted" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); display: block; font-family: &quot;Aktiv Grotesk&quot;, sans-serif; font-weight: 500; margin: 0px; text-decoration: none; font-size: 1.6rem; line-height: inherit; padding: 1rem 2rem 1.3rem 0px !important; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; position: relative; cursor: pointer; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" tabindex="0"><span style="font-family: Inter; font-size: 14px;"><u>Manufacturing</u></span></h3><div data-content="true" data-role="content" style="box-sizing: inherit; display: block; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: &quot;Aktiv Grotesk&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 300; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"><div data-element="details"><div style="box-sizing: inherit;"><p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Inter; font-size: 14px;">We limit production to just a few trusted suppliers, with each of whom we have longstanding relationships.

REACH is a European Union regulation (1907/2006/EC) restricting the levels of specific chemical substances in all imported goods. These rules are recorded in the Oekoe-Tex&#xAE; certificates that all Love Stories material suppliers have. Factories are re-audited every year in order to receive a new certificate.</span></p></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><span style="box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 16px; font-family: Inter;"><strong>Club L&apos;Amour: h</strong><strong><em style="box-sizing: inherit;">ow we care for our community</em></strong></span><span style="font-family: Inter;"><strong><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></strong><br></span><span style="font-size: 14px; font-family: Inter;">From the get-go, Love Stories was built on a foundation of optimism &#x2014; challenging societal norms for women and working together towards a better future. Everything we achieve as a company, is accredited to the people that build our brand and make and wear our garments with pride.<br style="box-sizing: inherit;"><br style="box-sizing: inherit;">Both locally and globally, Love Stories is dedicated to maintaining healthy relationships with everyone involved.

A percentage of the profit from our Yoni period underwear goes to the AFRIpads Foundation. An organisation that gets reusable menstrual kits into the hands of girls and women who need it the most. Since 2010 alone, AFRIpads Menstrual Kits have saved 29,603,127 kilos of waste from disposable sanitary pads. Continuing to take care of our planet, while we take care of our days. Our planet doesn&#x2019;t get any days off, so neither should we.&#xA0;</span></p></div><div data-content="true" data-role="content" style="box-sizing: inherit; display: block;"><div data-element="details" style="box-sizing: inherit;"><div style="box-sizing: inherit;"><span style="font-family: Inter;"><br></span></div></div></div><p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Inter;"><br></span></p><p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Inter; font-size: 14px;"><img src="https://uploads.gorgias.io/zKB3oxw4pl6rkVOL/SS22-CH3-Strategy-Page-PlanetLove_5-5661e379-0a76-40a6-8f86-cfa6c0d6caf7.jpg" style="width: 390px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib"></span><span style="font-family: Inter;"><br></span></p></div><div data-content="true" data-role="content" style="box-sizing: inherit; display: block;"><div data-element="details" style="box-sizing: inherit;"><div style="box-sizing: inherit;"><div style="box-sizing: inherit;"><div style="box-sizing: inherit;"><div style="box-sizing: inherit;"><div style="box-sizing: inherit;"><div data-content="true" data-role="content" style="box-sizing: inherit; display: block;"><div data-element="details" style="box-sizing: inherit;"><div style="box-sizing: inherit;"><div style="box-sizing: inherit;"><div style="box-sizing: inherit;"><div style="box-sizing: inherit;"><div style="box-sizing: inherit;"><span style="font-family: Inter;"><br></span></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><p><span style="font-family: Inter;"><br></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Inter;"><br></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Inter;"><br></span></p><p><br></p>
