T-Shirt Benefits Time’s Up
As more people rejoin the workforce post-pandemic, workwear line Argent is making sure women — who were disproportionately affected over the last year — are set up for success. In partnership with Time’s Up and linkedIn, the Hollywood-beloved brand is providing women with job-seeking tools, such as a virtual hiring week that connects candidates with more than 100 employers, including Glossier, Adidas and Walmart. No stranger to taking action in the name of female empowerment, Argent was also the driving force behind last year’s election-driven #AmbitionSuitsYou campaign with Supermajority—as evidenced in the line’s limited-edition, hot pink suits worn by the likes of Kerry Washington, Zoey Saldana and Katie Couric that dominated social media. Now, in celebration of #BackToWork, Argent has debuted two equally impactful limited-edition tees that shine a spotlight on the newly launched initiative, which runs through Aug. 20. Ten percent of proceeds will benefit Time’s Up’s and the fight against gender-based discrimination in the workplace. $30. argentwork/backtowork.
