Supermodel and Vice-Chairman of the British Fashion Council Erin O'Connor wears the Maserati Calandra t-shirt in support of WOMAC (Women On The Move Against Cancer).

As the ultra-glamorous catwalk shows of London Fashion Week showcase the Spring/Summer ’09 collections of the world’s most famous designers, Maserati GB and London’s leading model agency Independent have reinforced their partnership and are proud to offer their support to WOMAC (Women On the Move Against Cancer) by donating the proceeds from the sales of the Maserati Calandra t-shirts to this charity.

Clad in white Maserati Calandra t-shirts (this season’s colour), top models from Independent Model Agency will be chauffeured in Maserati GranTurismos throughout London Fashion Week. The Maserati GranTurismo is perfectly at home cruising around town and offers a stylish and refined retreat from the feverish catwalk action. Inspired by Maserati’s iconic grille, the Calandra t-shirts (available in this season’s colour White) can be ordered, in women’s and men’s sizes, from Maserati GB.

Established in 1979, WOMAC (Women On the Move Against Cancer) is made up of over 65 female volunteers working in the motor and associated industries. They organise events and activities to raise money for cancer charities. Their aim is to help continue the fight against cancer by supporting a variety of projects, searching for more effective treatments or improving the quality of life for cancer sufferers, their families and carers. WOMAC funds a different cancer project each year. It could be to help patients at home as well as in a hospital or hospice, perhaps to provide equipment or buildings for the treatment of men, women or children.

The Maserati GranTurismo is a true four-seat, thoroughbred, muscular sports car, which is thrilling to drive, and makes no compromises when it comes to on-board functionality and comfort. The large oval front grille and the long bonnet furrowed with the classic “V” streak make the GranTurismo instantly recognisable. Powered by a prodigious V8 engine producing 405 hp, the GranTurismo represents the ultimate in trans-continental crossing, high-performance luxurious motoring. UK prices for the Maserati GranTurismo start at £79,900.
