The Fashion Bit

?!X (Think Act Vote) is using creative energy to inspire people to think positively about our future. We are working with ethical and eco designers to create cool, wearable clothes that spread the message of the campaign, and through the ?!X Photobooth giving everyone we come a cross a chance to get involved.
The T-shirt
In partnership with ethical fashion label Komodo, we searched for the perfect design for our carbon neutral ?!X t-shirt from up and coming designers, artists and illustrators. The only proviso was that the design had to include the words Think Act Vote. The t-shirt serves as a reminder that we can think, act and vote every day to create the future that we choose.

Read about the winning design by Jesson Yip and see the design shortlist.
Re-Design Challenge: ?!X Refashioned
Leading ethical fashion designers Junky Styling, Ada Zanditon, Beautiful Soul, Traid Remade, Nancy Dee, Ciel, Tara Starlet, and Miksani got involved with ?!X taking on our upcylcing challenge.

    Wow! This is a great idea, it really strikes a chord with me, I don’t want to vote that much, but I am starting to realise the importance that I do!
