To mark ten years of supporting the British Fashion Council's NEWGEN scheme Topshop have released a T-shirt collection designed by some of its most famous alumni.

Marios Schwab, Meadham Kirchhoff, Christopher Kane, Mary Katrantzou, Roksanda Ilincic and Peter Jensen are just some of the designers who have created T-shirts for the initiative.

The tees will be sold during London Fashion Week, from the 17th - 21st February, at Topshop stores nationwide and also online.

Priced at £30 each, all profits from the sale of the T-shirts will go to Centrepoint, a charity dedicated to giving homeless young people a future.

Set up in 1993, NEWGEN is one of the world's most respected talent identification schemes, which, among other things, offers designers financial support towards their show costs and the opportunity to use the BFC Catwalk Show Space.

Designer + high-street + charity = sounds like the perfect fashion feel good recipe to us.
