UPCYCLING WITH AMNESTY


... a friend of mine works for the Austrian branch of Amnesty International, which is of course the well-known international NGO with the delcared aim to "prevent and end" all human rights-abuse - she asked me to advertise this project she was in charge of. Alright then...

As the NGO celebrates its 40th anniversary in 2010, the Austrian AI-people teamed up with upcycling specialist Garbage to create these bags - some kind of birthday present that you buy from AI to celebrate with them. They may not be the most stylish fashion accessories you'll ever come across. But this is definitely as close to "political fashion" as you can get. Do consider buying. Btw: it's mother's day next Sunday, so maybe that's a good occasion to place some "good conscience" in your mum's closet...
