Sass and Bide Shine On
"The human spirit will always aspire to shine . . . to taste the elixir of life, and to bathe in the glory of love." Nice. I am happy to report Sass and Bide designers, Heidi Middleton and Sarah-Jane Clarke, are celebrating 10 years in fashion by creating the Shine Initiative. They enlisted artsy, famous friends to create art pieces that interpret what "Shine" means. The result is a true mix of inspiration from the likes of Kate Moss, Twiggy, Mischa Barton, artist Sam Taylor-Wood, and Daisy Lowe.
All the works can be viewed and bid on at sassandbide.com. Proceeds will fund creative counseling workshops for abused children, led by the designers, in both Britain and Australia. July 23 bidding continues at an event in London at The Dairy — I'm sure Moss will show up! Here are some of my favorite pieces from the initiative.
British Knights
Missoni

It's great that these fashion fixtures want to help children, but does being a designer really qualify one to lead "counseling workshops" for kids who have clearly been through severe trauma? They could use the funds to provide sessions with trained therapists and counselors who provide art therapy and are more equipped to handle the weighty psychological issues "abused children" are facing.
