Marc Jacobs Supports SWOP-LV!

Marc Jacobs Graphic Tee

Here the most recent graphic of the tees Marc Jacobs designed for SWOP. They are opening a new store in Vegas and, as per tradition, they pick a non-profit to support. Of course, we're thrilled they picked us! Marc Jacobs plans to have a big opening event to sell the shirts, 35$ each, with all proceeds to SWOP-LV. They expect to sell between 300-1000!
