This major fashion designer shows her support for REPEAL project

International fashion designer Vivienne Westwood has shown her support for the Repeal the eighth project. 

The group's Facebook page posted a photo this afternoon of Vivienne holding one of their signature 'Repeal' sweatshirts. 

The post reads "Thank you Vivienne Westwood for repping #repealthe8th and Roisin Agnew, Irish journalist for supporting us since we started and making this happen."

The post has already been like over 200 times, in just 40 minutes. 

This is a major step for the repeal project, with Vivienne being one of the first international players to show support. 

The Repeal Project is an outerwear project that seeks to vindicate the rights of Irish women with regards to abortion.
