'Love will rise above all'

The humble t-shirt has always been one of the most powerful sartorial tools out there. It's a blank canvas ready for whatever message you think is worthy after all. Vivienne Westwood users hers to advocate climate revolution, while Maria Grazia Chiuri claimed the future was female.

Now Zadig & Voltaire have introduced the only t-shirt worth wearing this season, and it's all about female empowerment, because what better year to do it than on the 100th anniversary of the female vote?

The limited edition t-shirts were debuted on the catwalk at New York Fashion Week, during the brand's AW18 presentation. They are emblazoned with candid sepia photographs taken by Micol Sabbadini during the 2017 Women's March in NY, just after Trump was elected president.

They depict women brandishing placards with 'Girls just wanna have fundamental rights', 'Give us hope' and 'Love will rise above all' and we want every single one of them.

And lucky for us, we can buy them all right now online, with all profits going to Every Mother Counts, a non-profit organisations dedicated to making pregnancy and childbirth sage for every mother everywhere.

Penny Goldstone is the Digital Fashion Editor at Marie Claire, covering everything from catwalk trends to royal fashion and the latest high street and Instagram must-haves.

Penny grew up in France and studied languages and law at the Sorbonne Nouvelle University in Paris before moving to the UK for her MA in multimedia journalism at Bournemouth University. She moved to the UK permanently and has never looked back (though she does go back regularly to stock up on cheese and wine).

Although she's always loved fashion - she used to create scrapbooks of her favourite trends and looks, including Sienna Miller and Kate Moss' boho phase - her first job was at MoneySavingExpert.com, sourcing the best deals for everything from restaurants to designer sales.

However she quit after two years to follow her true passion, fashion journalism, and after many years of internships and freelance stints at magazines including Red, Cosmopolitan, Stylist and Good Housekeeping, landed her dream job as the Digital Fashion Editor at Marie Claire UK.

Her favourite part of the job is discovering new brands and meeting designers, and travelling the world to attend events and fashion shows. Seeing her first Chanel runway IRL at Paris Fashion Week was a true pinch-me moment.
