Emma Watson For People Tree
People Tree’s poster girl
is back, and working her modelling credentials to the max for their new campaign. The gorgeous shots were taken before that pixie crop, so it’s a tousle-haired Emma showing off the Fair Trade chunky knits, lumberjack shirts and cute dresses. Although Ms Watson didn’t design any of the pieces, she did help to find the gorgeous Fair Trade fabrics used to create the easy-to-wear collection, which led to a trip to a Fair Trade producer in Bangladesh to see the range being made. She said: "I still find it hard to convey what Fair Trade means to those producing our fashion – it’s just so impressive to see how women have used Fair Trade clothing to escape poverty and empower themselves and their children. I was moved and inspired." Sounds just as good as that cosy cream cardigan looks! GG

Emma Watson recently revealed the fruits of her gap year, the actress has collaborated with People Tree on a range of clothing due to launch in 2010
Emma Watson's new collaboration with ethical label People Tree is the kind of Gap Year project you'd expect from someone who's gone from child actress to style icon and Burberry model in a matter of years. The collection launches at the end of February next year with all proceeds going to the charitable People Tree Foundation. It's People Tree's first range for young people and takes influences from summer festivals, London and the South of France. Expect classic items like poplin skirts and jersey dresses from the 26-piece womens collection. The range also includes menswear and a small accessories line.
