Its little sleeves and round collar distinguished the T-Shirt from the standard sleeveless undershirt of the day. The sleeves may also have helped bring the T-Shirt out of hiding in the 1930’s and 1940’s, since they offered a gesture toward modesty as well as a cache for a pack of cigarettes.
why do T-Shirts never seem to fall out of favor? Because the T-Shirt is the single most powerful form of individual expression for the average person.
When you wear a T-Shirt with an embellishment on it, everyone may not interpret the embellishment the same way, but one thing is for sure, there is no question as to who is delivering the message. In today’s world, there are lots of powerful tools that are accessible to those with something to say.
There is the Internet and all of its devices such as email, personal websites, blogs and forums, chat rooms, etc. And the more traditional forms of expression still exist such as writing – stories, letters, poems or even art such as painting or sculpting. But with all of these aforementioned mediums through which one may express itself, there is none as powerful as the “Walking Billboard".
When you sport a women T-Shirt, you can’t hide who you are and what you are thinking. If you wear a shirt that says “eat shit and die" everyone who crosses your path will know that you are a really angry person or a person with a very sick sense of humor…or maybe both.
Another emerging niche in the custom T-Shirt market is Famous People tees, which offers original works of art that interpret icons of past and present. Some of the more popular icons to be featured are Bob Marley, Madonna, Che Guevara, and Al Pacino as Scarface.
Whatever your taste in T-Shirts, just be prepared to take criticism, comment, or praise from those who view whatever it is you’re advertising!
