Michael Kors donating hundreds of meals to children

OHMYGOSSIP — Michael Kors has pledged to personally donate hundreds of meals to children in need in return for people posting pictures of themselves wearing his charity T-shirts on social media.

The American fashion designer has made a personal pledge to donate the free meals to hungry children in return for people posting images of themselves wearing one of his designs on social media.

The 55-year-old icon will donate one hundred meals for each photograph posted to Facebook, Instagram or Twitter of someone wearing his Watch Hunger Stop T-shirt using the hashtag “WatchHungerStop”.

The garments are available for free at Michael Kors shops around the world until October 31.

The pledge is the latest of Michael’s charitable campaigns for his Watch Hunger Stop organisation – which he founded in 2013 together with the United Nations World Food Programme in a bid to raise awareness of, and eradicate, world hunger.

Meanwhile, the world-renowned designer recently caused controversy by predicting the death of the ‘fast fashion’, warning technology will change the industry forever as consumers become more and more concerned with quality.

He said: “I love fashion because it’s plugged into the zeitgeist, so it’s always changing. Thirty years ago, I could never have predicted I’d be where I am today, so I know I don’t know what’s going to happen in the next five years or the next 20 years.

“I have my predictions – I’m sure technology will continue to have an impact on fashion, particularly the way people shop. I think quality will be increasingly important – we’re moving away from a time of fast fashion.

“But really, the only constant in fashion is that you must keep moving forward, otherwise you’ll be left behind.”
