the projects she participated in is "Runway to Win," in which a number of
celebrities and fashion industry icons were tapped to design T-shirts and
other swag for President Obama's re-election campaign. According to href="http://nymag.com/daily/fashion/2012/01/obama-re-election-campaign-

effort was spearheaded by Vogue editor Anna Wintour, who wrangled a
number of her friends and fashion world peers to design shirts, tote bags,
scarves and bracelets for the Obama campaign. In addition to Beyoncé,
Diddy and hip-hip impresario Russell Simmons, others who've thrown in include
First Lady Michelle Obama fave designer Jason Wu, as well as Rachel Roy,
Narciso Rodriguez, Marc Jacobs, Diane Von Furstenberg, rag & bone,
Altuzarra, Alexander Wang, Tory Burch and Tracy Reese.
