When fashion meets charity

The fashion industry, for a long time, is often criticized for its superfluousness and
accused of being ignorant towards the underprivileged of the world, because it caters
exclusively to the elite.

We are glad to see that the situation has been gradually changing during the past
few years. Many world famous designers are getting together to try to create a
warm-heart environment and call on people to help out and contribute to our society.
Nothing would be better than to see these luxury labels using fashion for a good
cause and proving that fashion does in fact care. Here’s to changing the world through
fashion, one stylish step at a time!

Darfur. The program gives money to centers that are dedicated to vaccinating children
under five years old against the six most deadly childhood diseases.

Angela Missoni and Rossella Jardini
