What if a single T-shirt had the power to spread peace?

What if a single T-shirt had the power to spread peace?

“It’s time for action, in the name of world peace.” Major figures who share this vision with UNIQLO have volunteered to design T-shirts embodying their peaceful wishes. All proceeds will be donated to international organisations supporting those affected by violence, discrimination, armed conflict, and poverty. The PEACE FOR ALL project is powered by each and every one of you who wear these T-shirts. Our wish is for a world in which all people can feel safe in their daily lives.

UNIQLO will continue to broaden this initiative, working with people all around the world.

*UNIQLO parent company Fast Retailing Co., Ltd. will donate an amount equivalent to all profits (no less than 20% of the selling price) equally among UNHCR, Save the Children Japan, and Plan International Inc. This sales promotion is conducted by Fast Retailing, a parent company of UNIQLO Japan.

    The diversity of living creatures that exist on this earth creates and drives the beauty of the earth. I expressed that through the universality and infinity of colour. I hope that colours will move people's hearts.

  • Julian Opie

    People passing on the street in every town in every country all busy and focused, engaged in their lives and concerns. These people were walking in Busan, South Korea but they could be anywhere really, part of a constant flow of people around the world. I read a lot of history books and so much of them are about war and conflict. I have to remind myself that most of the time people were just going about their business walking the streets in the mornings to work or to see friends.

  • Francesco Risso

    Do we need to be like aliens to observe the miracle of creation, rather than the culture of destruction? In a nostalgic and simple vision of peace, an alien with sunglasses sits on a globe as if it was a Pilates ball. This image seems to suggest: what I like about Planet Earth isn't found on Planet Earth. The best telescope in the world shows what unites us. The primordial universe? Love that moves the sun and other stars?

The picture could have been shot anywhere in the city of Salvador de Bahia, which always has these beautiful clouds.

Blending documentary and conceptual photographic practices, she plays with reconstructions and archetypes in order to build a more layered understanding of the subjects she approaches. Working from the premise that mass media is reducing our real understanding of the world we live in, De Middel responds to an urgency to re-imagine tired aesthetic tropes and insert opinion in place of facts.
    De Middel was born in Spain and is based between Mexico and Brazil. She became a Magnum nominee in 2017 and Magnum President in 2022.

    Achieving PEACE FOR ALL may not be easy but there is a simple place to start:

    There is no peace without love.

    Each dot in my design represents a nation on Planet Earth, with the hope that one day, we’ll think of ourselves as one humanity bound by love.

    Collecting and melding disjointed individual pieces into one creates a large presence and power. I created this design thinking that if everyone could transmit even tiny pieces of positive energy in their own way, then the world would move in a better direction.

    This design's combination of the peace symbol of the dove with two hands expresses our desire to “care.”
    If we want peace for all, we must question our lifestyles and materialistic values. This means we need to relearn how to care for the planet. With time, we can protect biodiversity and create decent, sustainable living conditions. This change is possible. It is just a matter of good will.

  • Hana Tajima

    I wanted to create a design that would represent how we are all connected to the earth and to each other. Our own joy also contains the joy of others. When we bring peace to others we can also bring peace to ourselves. And when we are all free to be joyful, the world is a more colourful, and more abundant place.

  • Tadao Ando

    In today’s increasingly fragmented world, we need to reacquaint ourselves with the fact that we all live together on one single planet. That is why I have used this particular message. To achieve “The Earth is One,”it is vital that each one of us thinks very carefully about what we, as individuals, can do for society.

    Today designers and fashion brands must be generous and think firmly about the world and about humanity. I believe people will enjoy participating in this new and ongoing commitment and in expressing their views about peace in such a specific way. Don’t you want to wear this T-shirt?

    I just wanted to be of some use (maybe not much, but still..). I think it would be nice to create a world in which people, and cats, can live in peace .

    I took part because I wanted to do something useful as an individual in addition to promoting research as a physician-scientist. The ability of science and technology to change the world for the better is entirely dependent on the people who use it. So I added the message “Humanity must progress.”
