Vogue designer darling Thakoon Panichgul has created this Masai-print fleece-wool scarf, right, $250, that's he's selling on his brand-new e-commerce site. The do-good catch? 100% of the proceeds from the sale of this scarf will go to benefit the famine victims in Somalia. "This is foremost about the children [there],” Panichgul told Vogue.com. “They can’t fend for themselves. That’s the most immediate concern for me... I’ve never pulled together a project so quickly. We need to be doing more.” [Vogue.com]
