The iconic White Shirt Campaign has launched for its 17th year. @witcheryfashion, in collaboration with Victoria & Woods` founder and creative director, Margie Woods, created this year`s design, which is available at The Crossing.
This is more than a shirt. It’s a longstanding commitment by Witchery, raising over $17 million for the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation to date. There is promising research in the pipeline, but right now there is no early detection test, treatment options are limited, and the disease more than often recurs. This needs to end.
Every OCRF White Shirt and OCRF White Jean purchased helps fund life-saving research - every stitch, a step closer to helping end ovarian cancer.
Together, we’re weaving hope.

No worries! The Ōtautahi is Flash! installation is still lighting up Kettlewell Lane until the end of October. 🎨✍️
Saturday, 24th August was a day to remember at The Crossing! Market Day brought a buzz of excitement, and the launch of Ōtautahi is Flash! showcased Christchurch’s diverse voices. Writers as young as 3 years old shared their unique perspectives on our city and Word Christchurch transformed their words into stunning large-format displays that have made Kettlewell Lane a colourful and vibrant spot. With bustling market stalls, tasty crêpes from Crêpes De La Monde, and a celebration of local creativity, the day felt really special.
Thanks to everyone who joined us – it was fantastic to see so many smiling faces and to share in the vibrant creativity on display. If you haven’t seen it yet, there’s still plenty of time to check it out for yourself!
