Talent including Selma Blair, Penn Badgley, Keri Hilson, Sky Ferreira, Akon, Nikki Reed, Ginnifer Goodwin, Scissor Sisters, Shiloh Fernandez and The Misshapes are joining to support this year’s FAA collection, which will hit stores in the U.S. on April 26."
The collection features unisex looks for men and women such as t-shirts, sweaters, shorts and a few accesories, from which H&M will donate 25% of their proceeds to support international youth HIV / AIDS prevention and awareness programs through the Designers Against AIDS (DAA) partnership.
“Artists are an essential part of our campaigns, as they are role models for so many young people,” says Ninette
Murk, founder and creative director, DAA. “Celebrities help to spread the message by speaking out about HIV/AIDS prevention. We’re asking them to help spread the safe sex message on social media: Twitter, Facebook, their own websites and at their concerts too.”
