Georgie Waters, a senior copywriter at Ogilvy Sydney, is taking on workplace sexual harassment with clothing label, This Is A Statement.

The garments are emblazoned with the phrases ‘think before you speak’ and ‘be decent’, which were chosen by Waters to prompt people to rethink their behaviour.

The profits from one in three products sold are donated to organisations dedicated to bringing an end to sexual harassment, such as ANROWS and Our Watch. For International Women’s Day, 100% of the profits will be donated.
