Easily one of the most noble fashion collaborations 2014 has seen, Vivienne Westwood has designed a small range of tee-shirts for environmental charity, Cool Earth. Posed to spark another round of Anya Hindmarch, 'I Am Not a Plastic Bag' 2007, ethical frenzy, the tee-shirts feature two simple illustrations on white cotton round necks. These tee-shirts come in the wake of much campaigning from notorious activist and designer Vivienne Westwood. Indeed, from a woman who picked up her OBE from the Queen in no knickers, these seem sadly tame.
Nevertheless, at the root of these designs is a desire to spread awareness and raise money for the charity Cool Earth. Cool Earth works to protect the rainforest by repopulating the area with local people, thus ensuring a sustainable and productive relationship with the environment. The proceeds go towards rainforest protection in Cool Earth’s Ashaninka Project in the Ené Valley of Peru.
A nice Christmas present and a good way to buy a piece of designer clothing at an affordable price, these tee-shirts will sell out fast. Buy now for feel good fashion.

WESTWOOD TALKS

BLANKS: Are you vain?

WESTWOOD: [pauses] I might be . . . I’ll tell you what, I’m not competitive with other women at all. Maybe you are when you’re younger, but if I go into a room and see Pamela Anderson looking incredible, I’m going to be delighted, and I don’t have to be the center of attraction. I often am because I’m the kind of person that goes for it, but I’m ever so happy if somebody else is, or that they’ve done something marvelous. I’ll tell you one thing— maybe you can call this vain or not—but I look in the mirror in the morning, I put my makeup on, and I think about how old I’m getting, and then I forget about it and that’s that. I’m just quite happy and satisfied with myself. Actually, I think I look my best. And then I don’t even think about putting makeup on for the rest of the day. There’s a girl here who wears lipstick a lot, and if the telephone rings and it’s her boyfriend, she puts her lipstick on as she’s talking. I think that’s brilliant. [laughs] And Jerry Hall sprayed herself with perfume to go on the catwalk. I mean, it’s not a fame thing. As a young person, I thought I was quite good-looking at a certain point. I had rather stick-out teeth and things like that, but I thought, “When I grow up a bit, I’ll be quite nice-looking. And I can make myself look really good.” So I always used to do my own hair, and take time with everything.
