The aim is to spread awareness about HIV/AIDS, which affects many young people all over the world. The collection “Fashion Against AIDS” will be available in H&M’s Divided departments from February 2008. The artists participate free of charge and 25 per cent of the proceeds from the collection will go to HIV/AIDS-prevention projects around the world. This will be coordinated by DAA and YouthAIDS, Population Services International’s (PSI) HIV/AIDS prevention initiative which reaches more than 600 million young people in 60 countries. Prices vary from £7.99 to £19.99. All garments are made from 100 per cent certified organic cotton and carry a special hang tag that reads: “This might be the most important piece of clothing you’ve ever had your hands on.” > H&M x Rihanna “Fight Against AIDS” – January 31More info and pics after the jump…

that timbaland t-shirt looks hot!
our society is abusing the word “charity”, if HM has the money, why don’t they just donate it to schools so they can have proper sex education programs for teenagers( and their family, becoz some frequent news i hear daily is parents against how sex education offend their religion and motivates kids to have sex). I see no point of spreading the word by everyone on the street wearing a “use a condom” t-shirt. and I believe any disease is part of natural selection. Becareful about the word PROCEED, it could mean 25% of the profit goes to the charity, which means HM obtain 75% of sales profit, and the designers worked free of charge. so what kind of charity event are they running??i would never buy any of these charity items, same goes with my beloved gucci for unicef stuff, and cartier, etc. If i have the money, i will donate to the charity directly, but even this, can’t guarantee all my money goes to the needed. Charity are non-profit, but they don’t work for free.
i like the justice top…
God help me, but I like the Good Charlotte one…
im likin’ the Cardigan’s tee
Oh wow…can you please stop complaining..? Wat are YOU giving back to the less fortunate or do you sit all day long behind your fashionable laptop explaining to people how very little of the percentages actually go to the cause..?
I think it’s great for a company like H&M with sales of million dollars a year to get involved in a widespread problem..just think about how many H&M-stores reside all over the world and think about the many items of this campaign sold: you can’t call that little..all together that’s a whole lot of money..!
And please, please stop the ‘natural-selection’ BS…because that’s what it is…so what, we should just sit back and do nothing..??!
I need the Good Charlotte one.
Omg…that my chemical romance one …is bad ass..
I’m soo gonna buy that one..:D
Even if it is for men i’m still gonna buy it XD…

I wish My Chemical Romance had designed a shirt for women as well /= Oh well.. Great idea btw!
I want a shirt by MCR but that one was to men
I love the My Chemical Romance shirt.
“This might be the most important piece of clothing you’ve ever had your hands on”
It will be. I’m getting the JUSTICE t-shirt.
Just because it’s a ‘Men’s Tee’ doesn’t mean women can’t wear it.
Also, will these be sold in UK chains too? I really want to get my hands on that MCR shirt.
that justice tee is siick.
I gotta get me that Good Charlotte one! It looks awesome and I bet Billy drew it!
It’s great cause.

Justice! How could you not know that? I love Tiga’s hoodies & Rufus’ tshirt design.

I looove the Good Charlotte and My Chemical Romance shirts! <3
Must find a way to get them..
Don’t complain about the mcr shirt being for guys. Just buy it anyway.
I mean seriously no ones actually going to care.
Personally I find that mens shirts are much nicer than girls shirts…not to mention at gigs skinny fit is always more expensive.
I can’t find ANYWHERE that sells that chicks on speed top online. H&Ms website is actually shit.
I love that MCR one! I am so buying it I don’t care if it is for guys. I love all their stuff!!!
Does anyone know if the tshirts (particularly the Tokio Hotel one) will be sold in Scotland?
where can you buy these shirts at?
