"Clothes say a lot for things that can’t speak and for an issue that had been shrouded in secrecy and shame I felt they could act as statements of solidarity for women affected by the issue, as a stigma buster to open up a conversation on reproductive rights and as a fundraising mechanism for the multitude of volunteer-run organisations working on this issue".People all over the country are eager to get their hands on a REPEAL jumper as a way of taking a strong stance on an issue that has become so prevalent in our country. A very famous face from the world of fashion just lent her voice to the campaign too: none other than Vivienne Westwood. Vivienne is a hugely successful fashion designer whose career spans 30 years. A photo posted to the REPEAL Project's Facebook page shows Vivienne smiling with a REPEAL jumper alongside journalist Roisin Agnew. The image which shows the duo posing at Electric Picnic in Stradbally, Co. Laois reads:
"Thank you Vivenne Westwood for repping #repealth8 and Roisin Agnew, Irish journalist for supporting us since we started and making this happen".
