Description
To raise awareness around World Recycle Week, the artist M.I.A. wrote the song ‘Rewear it’ exclusively for H&M. The campaign film is a music video, where M.I.A. is featured together with an eclectic cast of interesting influencers and inspirational people from all over the world. They range from music artists, dance artists, comedians and people with a passion for environmental and social sustainability issues.
