"Reuters reports that Salvatore Ferragamo has designed a limited collection to raise funds for breast cancer groups called the Pink Collection.
The collection will go on sale in October, which is celebrated as breast cancer awareness month.
10 per cent of Ferragamo’s sales in Asia (Hong Kong, China, Taiwan, Korea, Singapore, India and Australia) will go to breast cancer foundations.
“Asia is waking up from last year’s financial disaster much faster than Europe or the United States,” Michelle Ng, regional managing director for Ferragamo, told Reuters.
“Right now, we’re seeing better performance and sales in Asia than anywhere else, due to the new wealth in the region and also the growing middle class which aspires to buy designer goods.”
The collection includes a pink, crystal-embellished edition of Ferragamo’s signature ballerina shoe as well as a perfume, a watch, a T-shirt and a canvas tote, with prices ranging from $256 to $1,050.
Also on offer are pair of bespoke pink satin sandals and a matching evening clutch which will be auctioned off for charity, with bids starting at $4,240."

CHRIS LIVE AKA SHAKER SAYS: Whilst I am most assuredly the complete polar opposite of anything even remotely resembling my arch-enemies, the loathsome cybernetic organisms known as Trendoids, I am a sucker for limited edition designer goods reppin' for a great cause. To that end, the Salvatore Ferragamo Pink Collection is an impressive example of fashion putting it's best foot forward. The brilliant product of a collaboration between the designer and the Breast Cancer Foundation to raise awareness and money for Breast Cancer Awareness month, the Pink Collection is a pink ribbon wrapped gift to us ALL.
Taking a hue from the Breast Cancer Foundation, this stunning range features all pink everything - from a Varina ballerina shoe, to matching accessories, sunglasses, and tees all bearing the brand’s iconic horseshoe logo, and elaborately embellished with sparkling crystals courtesy of Swarovski Elements. The pièce de résistance of the collection, however, is the mini-Varas embossed leather clutch and matching pair of metal filigree ("cage" heel) sandals dripping in crystals up for silent auction this October with an opening bid of $4,240.
Livestyle ladies, there may be no better reason to reach manicured fingers 1st into your purse than to support Cancer research. Get fly with a purpose ma! Think pink!
