Emma Watson to Design Fair Trade Fashion Line

The actress most famous for playing Hermione Granger has now decided that she wants to not only design a fashion line, but also one that benefits the laborers that help to construct it.

The Brown University freshman has described her clothes for People Tree as a long thought out effort:
"I wanted to help People Tree produce a younger range because I was excited by the idea of using fashion as a tool to alleviate poverty and knew it was something I could help make a difference with. It has been the most incredible gap year project."

Not only are they fair trade, the designs also use organic cotton and recycled materials.

Hopefully, this very young fashionista will not only lend her keen fashion mind to this venture but also her voice to this very important movement.
