The designer, Marc Jacobs, creative director of Louis Vuitton, and the British supermodel, Naomi Campbell, are to collaborate in a new project to support one of the Prime Minister’s wife, Sarah Brown’s favourite charities, The White Ribbon Alliance.
Louis Vuitton will donate a portion of sales from a bag from the new spring/summer 2010 collection, designed by Jacobs, to the charity. Ms Campbell, who is a Global Ambassador for the White Ribbon Alliance, made a special visit to the Louis Vuitton headquarters in Paris, recently, to choose the bag. It is made of khaki, metallic leather, with natural leather trim, and will be available from Louis Vuitton stores, in March, coinciding with the 100th Anniversary of International Women’s Day.
Mrs Brown became the patron of the White Ribbon Alliance in 2008. The charity is an international coalition of organizations and individuals, spanning 142 countries, dedicated to reducing maternal mortality worldwide and making pregnancy and childbirth safe for all women and newborns.
