Christopher Lee Sauve's 'Diamonds are Forever' Tees

— August 12, 2010 — Fashion
Naomi Campbell has landed herself in some hot water with the controversy surrounding blood diamonds in Sierra Leone. The model was supposedly given a massive blood diamond from Liberian ruler Charles Taylor, without her knowing about it.

Designer Chrisopher Lee Sauve has jumped on that controversy rather quickly, coming out with a 'Diamonds are Forever' t-shirt that has Naomi's face printed on it with diamonds in her eyes. The shirt is pretty clever, and a great way to garner attention to the controversy. Good work Christopher Lee Sauve.
