• McCartney offers festival fashion
• Stella McCartney vest for Oxfam at Glastonbury
• Stella McCartney's vest harks back to Glastonbury's hippy roots
• Festival fans will be able to indulge their passion for fashion as well as music this year after Stella McCartney designed a vest for Glastonbury.

The 5,000 shirts, costing £30 each, will only be available at the event, which opens its gates on Wednesday. They will be on sale at just one Oxfam stall, in the new Park area, to raise money for the charity. Oxfam said the vest was "influenced by the seventies tie-dye fashion beloved of her parents". Festival organiser Emily Eavis said: "Stella has a long-standing relationship with Glastonbury and has been coming to the festival for many years, so it's great for us to have this opportunity to work together. "People at Glastonbury can get their hands on a genuine collector's item, and - even better - all the proceeds go to Oxfam, which is a charity we're very close to."
