Upon entering Smashbox Studios for
Fashion Week Daily's LA Fashion Week Kickoff Party, you can't help but notice DHL's bright red and yellow booth and wonder, "What are they doing here?" DHL is a
delivery service.
DHL is proactively supporting LA Fashion Week's green initiative by providing several eco-friendly products for the designers, buyers, models and journalists attending the event.
Guests of LA Fashion Week can ship their goods directly from the venue using products made from recycled materials. DHL is even distributing the official Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week schedule cards, which are printed on recycled paper. They are also giving away a limited-edition tote bag designed by Zac Posen. The
"Tote for Teachers" is part of a fundraising partnership benefiting TeachersCount, a non-profit that supports teachers.
If you aren't lucky enough to attend LA Fashion Week, you can still reap the benefits of DHL's good work by purchasing their red and yellow leather tote for $400 at
www.toteforteachers.org, 100% of the proceeds will be donated to the organization.
