Julia Roberts goes red

RED, while a significant color, it is also a very significant label. Recently, Julia Roberts has teamed up for the second time with Giorgio Armani to design T-shirts for men and women to help the Global Fund to Fight Aids, Tuberculosis, and Malaria. The shirt uses the same popular tree of life that Julia designed last season on a bohemian bracelet for Armani. Inside the tree’s leaves are the words: “Revolution-Evolution-Devotion,” an acronym for the RED label. And at Julia’s request, the T-shirts will be made in Africa. Armani said of working with his friend Julia, that she has “helped to create beautiful and unique designs for both women and men which will be a visible reminder of the part that we can all play in fighting AIDS in Africa. I adore working with Julia and appreciate, once again, how she always stands by my side in important collaborations such as this.”

The Armani RED label sells accessories, eyewear, watches, T-shirts, leather bracelets and fragrances. 40 percent of the profit goes to help the Fund. The Global Fund for AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria has currently raised about $110 million dollars through various partnerships with Converse, Gap, Apple and more.
