Obama: Runway to Change

At the Doucette Duvall show they were showing organic and recycled fabrics and giving away Obam pins. Yes, times are such that politics cannot be ignored. We are all apart of it, democracy
 means we are all participants in politics, even if we earn our living making handbags or really we just like to occupy our time buying them.  I was happy to discover that the gap has been bridged and some of  my most favorite designers are supporting Obama by designing "hope" inspired pieces especially for his campaign that can be bought directly from his website.
I was excited to see a great T-shirt by the fabulous Maria Cornejo (pictured below), A beautiful print scarf by Rachel Roy (below), a straight from the hip print tote by Rag and Bone (pictured left)...and I am excited to see that Alexander Wang will be making a tank top, that I fully intend to get (even though I don't even know what it looks like yet!). Other designers include legendary Diane Von Furstenberg, Marc Jacobs, Costello Taglapietra, Nanette Lepore, Vera Wang, Tracy Reese, Zac Posen, Derek Lam,  Narciso Rodriguez and many more.
So go forth and shop! Show your support for Obama (and some positive change in this country) by sporting a fabulous designer t-shirt or bag. Plus, we'll all think you are totally chic. Barack Obama Runway to Change official online store.
