We often come across companies doing truly inspiring things, working on making our world a better place. Freedom and Fashion is one of those companies.
Freedom and Fashion is a fashion orientated organization that serves as a resource hub for fair-trade businesses and non-profit organizations dealing with the fight against child labor and human trafficking. They work on promoting companies such as Not For Sale, Polaris Project, Falling Whistles, def.i.ni.cion, Raven + Lilly, International Princess Project, and Krochet Kids International that raise awareness about these issues.
Question: How do they do it?
Answer: Through fashion!
For the third year in a row, Freedom and Fashion is producing a Fair Trade Fashion Show (promoting companies such as the ones listed above) on Saturday, December 17, in Downtown Los Angeles.
UK fashion brand All Saints recently produced and designed a t-shirt collection featuring Not For Sale, the proceeds of which will go directly toward Not For Sale’s work in fighting human trafficking. The collection already has a celeb following—model Agyness Deyn and rocker Jamie Hince have been spotted with them!
