For a stylish alternative to the usual Christmas jumper, menswear designer Christopher New has created a limited-edition T-shirt in silver on white. Proceeds from sales go to the Peter Walker Trust, which directly helps people with Aids. The T-shirt comes in two sizes: adults' (XL) and children's (age 6-10). Send a pounds 10 donation to the trust plus pounds 2 p&p per order (make cheques payable to The Peter Walker Trust) to The Peter Walker Trust T-Shirt Offer, Roger Dack, Studio 2, 83 Shepperton Road, London N1 3DF. Orders must be received by 14 December. Stockists include Ally Capellino, 45 Wardour Street, W1; American Retro, 15 Old Compton Street, W1; Gilmore's, 19 Renfield Street, Glasgow; Carl R Twigg, 61 Bridge Street, Manchester.
Other Christmas bargains for shoppers with a conscience can be found at this week's Christmas Fair organised by Fashion Acts, the fashion industry's initiative to help people affected by Aids and HIV. Good buys will include clothes by Vivienne Westwood, jewellery by Erickson Beamon, and glasses by Cutler & Gross.
