Following the announcement of the Spice Girls reunion tour last week, the foursome are now planning a fashion range.<\/p>\n
During their appearance on The Jonathan Ross Show, the girl band revealed that they are launching a limited edition clothing range which will include a T-shirt, sweatshirt and hoodie emblazoned with the hashtag #IWANNABEASPICEGIRL \u2013 a play on their 1996 hit single Wannabe.<\/p>\n
The good news doesn\u2019t stop there; Emma, Melanie C, Mel B and Geri also announced that 100 per cent of the proceeds from the collection will be donated to Comic Relief\u2019s Gender Justice fund, which helps champion equality for women and girls in the UK.<\/p>\n

The style evolution of the Spice Girls through the years
\nComic Relief has been funding programmes tackling gender-based sexual and domestic violence, and supporting women and girl\u2019s empowerment since it began in 1985.<\/p>\n
It says that this money will help us to continue supporting organisations doing such fantastic work to help drive change.<\/p>\n
\u201cEquality and the movement of people power has always been at the heart of the band. It is about equality for all, ‘every boy and every girl\u2019,” said the Spice Girls in a statement.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe recently found out that charities focused on issues faced by women don\u2019t get the funding that they desperately need, so launching a campaign to raise funds for these issues is incredibly important to us and an area we want to support.\u201d<\/p>\n
Similarly, Victoria Beckham \u2013 who isn\u2019t joining the band on their reunion tour \u2013 launched her own Spice Girls charity T-shirt to help Comic Relief\u2019s Red Nose Day back in April.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
