These game changers all star in a brand-new video campaign—check it out now:
What Does It Mean to Be a Game Changer?
- Speaking up for what you believe in
- Doing something good for the planet
- Being solid
- Informing people
- Innovating, boldly and bravely
“I’ve always been an animal lover, and I’ve always been a lover of fashion and beauty … the idea that animals would be killed or hurt for my style was just so at odds with how I felt about what I wanted to portray to the world.”
—Evanna Lynch
“It’s part of who you are. And I think that’s the most stylish thing and the most honest thing and the most attractive thing about people: when they are just going to honor their truths.”
—Mýa
Delikate Rayne designers Meg and Komie Vora want to show people that they can be stylish and super-fierce without harming animals. Through their animal-free fashion line—which all the women in the video above are wearing pieces from—the pair is proving that even though there’s a lot of work to be done, they’re doing it as game-changers. They’ve even teamed up with PETA to help you transform your closet.
Check out the company’s limited-edition faux-suede cap—20 percent of the proceeds of its sale will be donated to PETA’s vital work for animals:
“Mushroom leather, pineapple leather—I’ve kind of heard it all at this point, and I’m so excited to rock those … not only does that speak to who I am, it speaks to a fashion industry that everyone wants to be a part of.”
—Daniella Monet
“What if it were me? What if someone wanted to torture me and wear me? I’d have a problem with that, and I think that some time ago, that was the case—it was called slavery.”
—Dawn Richard
“What you’re wearing sends a message to everybody around you and everyone that sees you. I would—any day, any time—rather be saving a life than getting a pair of shoes. That’s always what it comes down to.”
—Harley Quinn Smith
