Sam Faiers, Coleen Rooney and Caggie Dunlop are just some of the stars that are rallying together to help launch the 2014 Jeans for Genes campaign.

Jeans for Genes day will be held on Friday 19th September and this year the charity campaign has teamed up with the prestigious Edinburgh College of Art for the design of their official charity T-shirt.

Each year the campaign raises funds for Genetic Disorders UK which benefits children and families all over the UK who are living with a genetic disorder.

The T-Shirt, which will be available to buy online, features a one off design by young designer Rachel Hill.  The design, which was one of hundreds submitted via a competition open to Edinburgh College of Art students, features a double helix, which depicts the structure of a DNA molecule, combined with on trend SS14 pastel colours.

Rachel’s design was selected as the winning design by an expert panel comprising of fashion experts and popular style icons including: Coleen Rooney, Jaime Winstone, Stylist Magazine Fashion Director, Alexandra Fullerton, and founder of the Scottish Fashion Awards, Tessa Hartmann.

The high profile judging panel said that when choosing the winning T-shirt design, they were looking for something that was ‘stylish and appealing, and a must have item for the wardrobe.’
