Sydney resort wear label known for hand-printed silk kaftans.
Camilla can't show that the workers who make its products in India and Vietnam earn a living wage, which workers there are very unlikely to.

Why it's graded Lacks transparency
- Not met: Meets 2 of 6 Good requirements.
- Holds the grade back: It doesn't show that workers are paid a living wage, and isn't certified as working towards one. On Track needs at least one of these.
- It isn't Harm on record, because there's no serious confirmed problem on its record.
- Lacks transparency is still a poor grade: in supply chains like this, workers who can't be seen to be treated fairly are usually underpaid or unprotected.
Good requirements 2 of 6
- Not met: Pays a living wage, or holds a strong fair-pay certificationLiving wage: no evidence
- Not met: Respects worker rightsJudged on where its products are made: worker rights are poorly protected in India, China and Brazil.
- Met: Supply chain independently audited or certified, or at least 80% made in countries with strong labour standards
- Met: No child or forced labour findings or links
- Not met: Names the factories or farms that make its products, or is fully certified by a scheme that holds and audits that list
- Not met: High-risk raw materials (cotton) traced or certified, or not a major part of its rangeNot traced or certified: cotton

Evidence
What we found
- Modern slavery statement
- Independent social audits of all its main factories
- Doesn't show where its cotton comes from. Cotton is linked to forced labour in Xinjiang and Turkmenistan, and child labour in several growing regions, so it can't be graded Good until it traces or certifies it.
Research notes CAMILLA's clothing is made by independent suppliers: its FY25 modern slavery statement lists 30 tier 1 factory sites, with 66% of units made in India (mostly by one long-term digital print and garment partner) and 32% in China. Almost all production is covered by third-party social audits (Sedex/SMETA, amfori BSCI, ABVTEX), and it exited a Brazilian supplier in FY23 for failing to join an audit programme. Its supplier code requires a living wage and it has run living wage assessments with its main Indian partner, but it has not published wage gap results, a deadline or a full factory list. It is not rated in the 2026 Ethical Fashion Report.
