Gianni's Death Has Been A Terrible Thing... FOR ME
Once again, the famously altruistic world of high fashion races to the rescue of the 3rd world by combining glamor photography with questionable taste:

A series of striking images have been produced to highlight the fact that two-thirds of blind people are women, 90% of whom live in developing countries.

Trachoma is a blinding disease spread by eye-seeking flies.

It is significantly more common in women than men and is one of the biggest reasons women go blind in the developing world.


Erm. Yes. Well. Oddly, they seem to have forgotten to apply solidarity blackface.
