Katy Perry and Dita Von Teese have worked together with H&M and Designers Against AIDS to launch Fashion Against AIDS. The clothing collection, created for men and women, is designed to help spreading awareness of HIV and AIDS to today's youth.
Katy Perry put her clever safe sex message "WHAT'S ON THE OUTSIDE IS WHAT COUNTS" on both a bodysuit and a cap-sleeved shirt. Meanwhile, Dita Von Teese created an attractive image of her iconic red lips and arched brow on a cute cap-sleeved T-shirt.
The clothes designs will go on sale in H&M's youth-oriented Divided department on May 28. 25% of the sales gained from the 100%-organic-cotton clothes will be donated to HIV/AIDS prevention projects of Designers against AIDS, UNFPA, MTV's Staying Alive Foundation and YouthAIDS. Other celebrities joining in this H&M's second Fashion Against AIDS collection project are, among others, Cyndi Lauper, Yoko Ono and hip hop group N.E.R.D.
