International Women's Day is celebrated around the world on March 8
International Women's Day is a
day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women across the world. The theme for
International Women's Day 2017 is "Be Bold for Change." The hope is to drive women and men to work together towards a better, more inclusive and gender equal world. Did you know that International Women's Day is actually an official holiday in some countries? While you may not have the day off from work on Wednesday, March 8, you can show your solidarity with the cause by wearing your feminism on your sleeve - not just on one day, but every day! While we can't promise that simply wearing a t-shirt will transform people around you into feminists, it could spark some interesting conversations.
Here are 7 of our favourite feminist t-shirts:
1. This one actor Anuskha Sharma wore on the cover of
Vogue India that says it all: "We should all be feminists."
2. This one that shows us what a feminist looks like:

desi-fabulous one that actor Sonakshi Sinha wore in

7. This one that proves it: "Girls just wanna have fundamental human rights."
