Not your average Christmas jumper: British designers team up with top models for Save The Children

Charity and shopping combine with this new special collection raising money for Save The Children.

There are a mere 59 days till Christmas, which means it's nearly time to purchase a new Christmas jumper. Forget trawling round the high street, we've got this year's version covered and there's the added benefit of shopping for a good cause involved too.

Save The Children has launched new campaign Fashion Saves Lives which sees it bring together five top British designers (Christopher Kane, Charlotte Olympia, Giles Deacon, Henry Holland and Bella Freud) to create special edition festive jumpers all modelled by 5 top models - Kate Moss, Erin O'Connor, Karen Elson, Poppy Delevingne and Dree Hemingway.

Christopher Kane has created a classic monochrome polka dot design. Shoe designer Charlotte Olympia's is quirky green style featuring a leopard and shoe illustration. Bella Freud's black version comes with her signature slogans, this one a festive inspired 'Fairytale of New York.' Giles Deacon's longer length style comes in bright red with black bow embellishment. Finally Henry Holland has designed the most traditionally festive - a red and pink style with the words 'Jolly' emblazoned on the front.

The jumpers are available to purchase exclusively from matchesfashion.com from Wednesday 4th November, priced at £365 each. 100% of the profits raised from the sale of each jumper (£100 per jumper) will be donated to Save the Children to help the world’s most vulnerable children.
