�We as an industry have begun need to take action. We are starting to see the negative effects of individuals designing and make clothes on their own, It is hurting our business now, but in the long term it will be devastating to our livelihood,� said McCartney at a press conference. �What we have learned from watching the struggle the music industry has endured is that we need to take an aggressive approach to protect our business. What really brought this home for me was a conversation I had with my father and hearing him talk about the hardship music piracy has caused him. This is taking food out of the mouths of retailers, designers, and models. Um, well maybe not so much the last one but you get the picture.�
�Fashion for Fashion� will comprise high profile designers as well models and support personnel from all across the industry. The focus will not only be on advocacy, but also on aiding those hurt by potential economic downturn.

�With the rise of discounted clothing at places like Wal-Mart it is totally unnecessary for people to make their own clothing anymore,� continued McCartney. �There was a time when people had no option but to make their own clothes but that just isn�t the case anymore. This is the Twenty-first century .There was a time when people had to build their own houses but that just isn�t the case anymore. We have outlawed making your own liquor, making your own CDs and DVDs, now it is time to outlaw making your own clothing. We cannot allow pirates to destroy our industry. There may be some hardships, but we all need to make sacrifices for the betterment of everyone, or at least for
