COS’ latest statement cotton tees are a shout-out to love in all its forms
COS collaborates with artist Coco Capitan to produce a capsule collection of statement T-shirts featuring three unique designs in her signature handwriting style that celebrate messages of love, freedom and inclusivity.
“ALWAYS LOVE BECAUSE LOVE IS ALWAYS LOVE” is a shout-out to love in all its forms. The two other designs “A BOYFRIEND CALLED MY GIRLFRIEND” and “WOULD YOU BE MY BOYFRIEND GIRL QUEER FRIEND?” explores gender orientations. Inspired by Coco’s personal relationships, the pieces are now available locally.
The designs are embroidered onto an organic heavy-weight cotton T-shirt to lend a boxy, structured fit and will be available in unisex sizing.
Alongside the T-shirts, a special edition of the repurposed cotton tote will also be available. Featuring the colors of the Progress flag, the tote utilizes excess cotton from COS’ production process. The fast-fashion brand also boasts that its totes are durable, made to replace disposable packaging and 100 percent recyclable.
COS stands together with the LGBT+ community and is committed to building a brand where everyone is free to be themselves, whomever they choose to love. Funds raised from the sales of these products will be donated to Philippine-based LGBT+ organizations such as:
- Galang is a female-led non-profit organisation working with and for economically disadvantaged LGBTQI, and seeks to support, educate and promote the fair treatment of all persons equally regardless of class, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression. (http://www.galangphilippines.org/ )
- Love Yourself is a non-profit LGBT organization that provides safe spaces and services for the sexual, mental and transgender community in the Philippines. It also works towards a just and progressive society that treats all persons equally regardless of class, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender expression. (https://loveyourself.ph/ )
