Pharrell Williams
Rapper, singer and songwriter Pharrell Williams, who has won ten Grammys and is super well-known for his hit single “Happy,” debuted a denim line called RAW for the Oceans in association with G Star Raw way back in Spring 2015. His line of blue jeans are actually made from broken down plastic from the world’s oceans. Isn’t that awesome?
