Sheena Mathieken



This is Sheena Mathieken. She is a fashion designer based in Brooklyn, and has undertaken this unique fundraiser called The Uniform Project, in aid of the Akanksha Foundation, an organisation that believes that every child has a right to develop their potential, and is dedicated to funding school supplies and uniforms for slum children in India.

Sheena is garnering attention, and hoping to raise substantial funds for the organisation, by wearing the same little dress (well, 7 little dresses of identical design) for an entire year. Today is Day 52 for her. Do go to the website, where you can make a donation, and watch and follow how she gets creative with her little uniform. It is absolutely amazing!
