On World AIDS Day, during the opening of the IHAEC, Ninette Murk, DAA founder, and Carsten Weise, our Project Manager, talk about HIV/AIDS. 

Hey you! Are you a design fanatic, a scarves lover, a music addict? Or you just happen to live in Brussels? 

We just received this image, made by Michael James O'Brien and Zoltan Gerliczki, of all the art works that were donated to us by talented photographers and contemporary artists and that were sold at the benefit auction at Campo & Campo in Antwerp last Friday.
A big thank you is in order for everybody who helped us make this event a big success! 

Recently we've seen a call to support DAA's activity in opening the International HIV/AIDS Awareness Education Center (IHAEC) in the E-Newsletter of the King Beaudoin Foundation, whose motto is 'Acting Together for a Better Society'. 

The traveling exhibition 'Project White T-shirt', curated by 22-year-old Ritchie Chan and currently to be seen in Los Angeles at Space 15 Twenty gallery on 1520 N.Cahuenga Blvd, gives you a whole new idea about the plain white T.

Chan asked 31 designers from 13 countries to reinterpret a white T-shirt into something conceptual. 

2010 is the 20th anniversary of Keith Haring's death from aids. 

One of the most talented and original fashion designers coming out of the Antwerp Academy is Bernhard Willhelm, who graduated in 1998 and meanwhile celebrated his 10 year jubilee together with his business & design partner Jutta Kraus. 

In our daily fashion lifes, where we care about what to wear, who's hot and what is not, we sometimes forget about things that really matter.
Luckly, organisations such as Designers Against AIDS remind us of that and that’s why -as a side project of Models Against AIDS- Dominique Models came in contact with the fantastic people of ‘La Maison Shalom’ in Burundi, Africa. 

Would you like to support Designers against AIDS and at the same time participate to our new contest where you can win very special items? Here's your chance! 

What a splendid evening! Fashion network site Nineteen74 teamed up with Designers Against Aids to launch Schön! 

Hooray, it's time to party! 

A special thank you is at place here for our photographer:
