In this episode, we discuss the past, present, and future of one timeless category of T-shirt design: the BOLD STATEMENT TEE. From Katharine Hamnett and House of Holland to Ana Bolina and Jaded London, we decode the social and political bygones permanently etched onto masses of XL blanks. We talk human billboards, wearing your Instagram caption on your sleeve, truism thirst traps, dropshipping scandals, and more!
