Creations Nelson S.A.S.
Operating under the theme-“precious bonds of love”
In 1995, Comptoir des Cotonniers began with boutiques in Paris and Toulouse, South France with the brand concept “Clothes for Mothers and Daughters.” It has been supporting the international humanitarian aid organization Medecins du Monde since 2007. The organization’s first mission is to provide medical care to those in vulnerable positions around the world. In most cases, the immediate victims of war, disease and violence are women and children. In 2009, the brand gave particular support to women and children in Nepal, where over 90% of women give birth at home. This was done through activities aimed at reducing the mortality rate during childbirth and by providing free emergency medical care to expecting mothers. From April 1 to May 10, 2009, 500 yen from the sale of each Leon T-shirt was donated to an international medical charity; from every T-shirt sale, 12 home delivery kits will be purchased. Comptoir des Cotonniers wishes to continue to support various initiatives under the theme: precious bonds of love between mother and child.
PETIT VEHICULE S.A.S
For women, children and people suffering from disease
As a free-spirited lingerie brand established in France in 1985, the company operates via a network of 160 closely managed branches located mainly in France and its 1,000 outlet stores located in major department stores in over 40 countries. The PRINCESS tam.tam brand has consistently supported UNICEF and non-profit organizations such as AIDES and Enfance et Partage, all dedicated to improving the lives and protecting the rights of women, children and people suffering from disease. Over the past six years, we have been participating in UNICEF’s Les Frimousses de Createurs and have donated the proceeds from sales of cute dolls auctioned in November. PRINCESS tam.tam has also supported the Toutes a l’ecole association established by the editor-in-chief at Marie Claire France. We donate to the association 10 euros for each 25-euro striped flannel shirt purchased at our stores or via our website.
The founder and president of the foundation, Tina Kieffer, has said that women are responsible for educating children and that providing children with knowledge is essential for the world’s future.
Link Theory Holdings Co., Ltd.
We support the Breast Cancer Campaign as a corporate partner of FTBC Fashion Targets Breast Cancer
Theory was established in New York City in 1997 to meet the needs of contemporary women and to create extremely comfortable, modern and sexy daily wear. Theory became a partner to Fashion Targets Breast Cancer (FTBC) and started a campaign in Japan, an initiative supporting healthy lifestyles for Japanese women, upon a request from the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) in 2008. In October of that year, we sold logo T-shirts (2 styles), logo bags and logo badges designed by our creative designer, Istvan Francer, at the brand’s stores throughout Japan (Theory, Theory Men’s, Theory Luxe, Theory Petit, and PLS+T). Profits were donated to a fund at the Japan Cancer Society and to other organizations toward improving their care in the area of breast cancer, including advocating breast cancer prevention and providing information to patients. During the 7th Japan Fashion Week in TOKYO, we provided free mammography screenings at the main venue in Tokyo Midtown Garden to promote the importance of the early detection of breast cancer.
