Breast Cancer Awareness Month is several months away, but Tommy Hilfiger is getting in early to do his part with the launch of a new limited edition bag. The handbag is Tommy Hilfiger’s fifth released to help Breast Health International, a global charity committed to finding a cure for the prevalent cancer. Since becoming involved with the charity in 2007, Tommy Hilfiger has raised more than €300, 000.
This year’s tote is made from vegetable-dyed tan suede with a subtle golden trim. The herringbone lining makes the bag feel just as luxurious inside as it does out. It will cost €299; €100 of this will benefit Breast Health International’s Fund for Living. This initiative helps to support women and men battling breast cancer. It recognizes the limitations of the world’s health care systems, and funds the essentials not covered to ensure patients can focus on their recovery.
Tommy Hilfiger launched the limited edition bag recently at a press conference with Renee Zellwegger, the bag’s ambassador. The Hollywood actress became involved with the project after she saw several friends and family members struggling with the disease.
The Tommy Hilfiger Breast Health International bag will hit the label’s flagship stores, selected department stores, and Tommy Hilfiger’s website on May 6.
