Our Products
Vanity Fair® garments are guaranteed to be crafted with high quality, supreme comfort and excellent fit to make women feel fabulous. We hold ourselves to the highest quality standards to ensure that our garments last wash after wash. Quality garments last longer and do not need to be replaced as quickly to help minimize negative impacts to the environment.
We have also expanded our product assortment to include garments made using Tencel™ Modal, Recycled Polyester and cotton meeting the Better Cotton™ standard, which are sustainably sourced and better for the environment.

Our Planet
Vanity Fair® is focused on responsibly sourcing environmentally friendly paper and plastic packaging. FSC paper is used for all paper tags. Our paper tags also feature How To Recycle logos to provide consumers with information on how to appropriately dispose of packaging after purchase. Our distribution centers use ecofriendly polybags made with 100% recycled plastic for ecommerce orders. At retail, 100% of Vanity Fair® packaged styles use ecofriendly polybags made of 60% recycled plastic.
Vanity Fair® ensures that our manufacturing facilities continue ongoing projects to better the planet. Below are current areas of focus:
Our People
At Vanity Fair®, we aim to be a welcoming brand that is reflective of the diverse community of women we serve. This is why we have trained our teams on both D&I sensitivity in the marketplace and fit protocol for all genders. The result? Our teams are more knowledgeable about how to navigate diversity with sensitivity.
Now, more than ever, women want to see themselves reflected in what they see from brands. We are committed to featuring more models and influencers of color, and we have expanded our product color offering to contain a broad range of skin tones. Because we serve women who need support, we continue to expand our product line and size range to meet the needs of more women.
In the workforce, we believe our differences make us stronger and for this reason, we are committed to creating a workplace where everyone is treated with respect and empowered to contribute. We want to foster an inclusive culture of belonging for all employees, intentionally attracting, retaining and developing diverse talent.
At Vanity Fair®, we ensure that all employees are treated fairly both in the United States and globally. All of the Vanity Fair® manufacturing facilities are independently evaluated regularly under one of the following audits: Worldwide Responsible Accredited Production Policy (WRAP), Sedex Members Ethical Trade Audit (SMETA), Business Social Compliance Initiative (BSCI) or Workplace Conditions Assessment (WCA), which collectively assess facilities with respect to the following principles:
If the fundamental requirements under any of these areas are not met, Vanity Fair will not begin operating with the facility until the action is corrected. If a facility that is currently manufacturing our products is found to be deficient in any of the above areas, they must remedied within defined due dates.

At our headquarters in Bowling Green, Kentucky, we donate intimate apparel, look for opportunities to be “greener” within the office and participate in the Volunteer Time-Off Program which allows for 20 hours of paid volunteer hours per employee per calendar year.
