For over 75 years > our shops have been selling clothes to raise money for Oxfam’s vital poverty-fighting > work with some of the most vulnerable communities across the world. >   > “So, what better way to shine a light on the power of fashion for good, than by > putting second-hand clothes in the spotlight at London Fashion Week. We’re bringing > show-stopping, sustainable looks to the catwalk, reflecting the huge range that > can be found in our stores where everyone can find something unique, whatever > their taste or style. >   > “There’s simply never been a more important time to remind audiences of the link > between fashion and climate change. Choosing second-hand fashion is a positive > action we can all take to reduce the need, and demand, for brand-new clothes and > the polluting emissions they make. Oxfam fashion is empowering because it looks > great, and it does good in the world.” [The auction](http://www.bit.ly/shopFFP) will go live during the show. ## More celeb-related fundraising ![](https://wfay6x.infiniteuploads.cloud/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-14-at-21.21.59. png) #### Musicians donate lyrics for UNICEF Ukraine campaign Famous artists including Paul Simon, the Rolling Stones, Coldplay, and Nick Cave, have donated lyrics for a global charity campaign to help children affected by the war in Ukraine. #bravehood, created by nonprofit [GUIDING LIGHT in support of UNICEF](https://www.unicef.org/partnerships/bravehood-international-artists-stand-up-for-children-in-ukraine) and in partnership with the artists, aims to support children in need by providing emergency shelter, healthcare, psycho-social support and more.
