Top designers will create "Obama-inspired" styles.

The last time the top names in the fashion industry teamed up for Barack Obama's political cause, they created Runway to Change in 2008 to release T-shirts and tote bags for his inauguration. Four years later, designers like Tracy Reese and Jason Wu will be at it again, only this time they're campaigning for the president's reelection.

Runway to Win
is described as a "collaboration by some of the country's top fashion designers in support of Obama 2012" where they will create "Obama-inspired designs" like canvas totes and graphic T-shirts. Other designers who've jumped on board include Tory Burch, Diane von Furstenberg, Alexander Wang, Narciso Rodriguez and Marc Jacobs.
