Desigeners Against Aids
The initiative Designers against AIDS (DAA) began ten years ago. Since then it has manifested itself with famous fashion campaigns such as Fashion against AIDS and collaborated with the best photographers and designers and stars from the rock and pop culture, who all lent themselves for the good cause – making people aware about HIV/AIDS in a positive way and removing the stigma of being seropositive by the creation of beauty.
You will find all of this in the book, out on 29th of October. On the same day, the book will be presented during an auction for the good cause, at Campo & Campo, Grotesteenweg 19/21, 2600 Antwerp, starting from 19:00. Part of the revenue of book sales will go to the brand new DAA Education Center.
