Oh and for ShesElectric: we don't have any stores in Canada or the US, which is a bit strange since for next season (A/W 06-07) next to Rogan Gregory we also sell a design by Playboy which really is cute and to the point (and conceptually a very good partner for DAA). So you'd have to go to France (Colette in Paris), Germany, Belgium or Japan for your T. We sincerely hope that we have some US stockists for S/S 07 but somehow aids activism got put on the backburner there, or maybe people feel that if they support Project Red they've done their bit. I respect Bono a lot for the work he'd doing for Africa, but we want to warn people that hiv/aids can be found much closer to home as well- and at least we can protect ourselves against it! It's amazing how nonchalant a lot of 'western' people are nowadays when it comes to protection. The generation that was so vigilant about it in the 80's has iether died or has a major burn-out and the younger ones think that if they do get infected, they just pop a little pill and can live to become 90. How ignorant can you be? We believe we can reach these young people easier with items designed by fashion & music celebs than with newspaper articles and flyers. OK, I'll stop preaching right now;-)
