Australia’s fashion royalty team with Variety to create the ultimate Chari-Tee

Forget Manolo Blahnik shoes, Prada bags and Marc Jacob sunnies,
2008 will be the year of the collector’s edition Chari-Tee.

Ten of Australia’s hottest fashion designers have given their talent and time to each design a limited edition tee-shirt for Variety, the children's charity, with the range to be launched nationally at an event in Brisbane in early February, and available for sale online and at the NRA Australian Fashion Design Festival presented by Pacific Fair on the Gold Coast from 10 March 2008.

Pamela Easton and Lydia Pearson from Easton Pearson, Wayne Cooper, Peter Morrissey, Harry Watt and George Gross from Harry Who, Trelise Cooper, Jonathan Ward, Charlie Brown and Marilyn Said of Covers all taking part in the inaugural Collector’s Edition Chari-Tee for Variety.

Each Variety Chari-Tee features a custom design and the respective designer’s signature (all design images available, plus images of fashionista and TV presenter Sophie Faulkner (as above) and designer Peter Morrissey in the Chari-Tees).

The brainchild of Danielle Harris, Variety Queensland’s chair of Ladies of Variety Events (LOVE), together with her mother, style doyenne Di Cant, said they had an overwhelming response from Australia’s best designers wanting to be part of this initiative.

“Once they heard it was for Variety and that they could design a tee that reflected their signature style, they were absolutely committed,” she said. “The fact that the Chari-Tees will be retailed nationally and showcased at the NRA Festival was just a bonus for them. Every tee is a fashion statement.”’

Variety the Children’s Charity is devoted to raising funds for children in need.
