The
fashion designer behind Fashion week’s Code Purple Event, Robin Crespo came as
a special speaker at a local bridal fashion show this weekend.
Known for
his Hood-E design that is helping save lives in third world countries, Crespo is
on a mission. The special treated purple linen Hood-E not only repels mosquitoes
carrying infectious diseases but also prevents individuals from being initially
bit.
“The
Hood-E provides mobility to people in the villages. There are bed nets when
people sleep, but there is no protection when people walk from school, the
market or work, said Crespo.
Good for
up to fifty washes, this light-weight Hood-E could potentially save a life.
If you
are interested in getting involved, donating or even buying a Hood-E for
yourself, be sure to check out the website here.
