Fashionably black and white would be a simple, yet misleading way to describe the 2009 Autumn/Winter t-shirt collection from Passarella Death Squad.
The arrangement of shirts possess a shaded rendition of a high-end magazine cover. The provocative models are carefully censored by the creative design of the t-shirt.
Passarella Death Squad manufactures and hand screens each garment in London. The 2009 Autumn/Winter collection is an interesting view of regularly colorful magazine covers.
Implications - I'm a big sucker for ads like these. By deftly featuring an ad campaign that is deftly sexualized in addition to displaying the quality of the shirt's designs shows a brand willingness to blend high and low brow.
What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- The trend of incorporating magazine cover designs on t-shirts presents opportunities for clothing brands to merge fashion and print media.
- Provocative Fashion Campaigns
- The use of deftly sexualized ad campaigns in the fashion industry highlights opportunities for brands to bridge the gap between high and low brow aesthetics.
- Hand-screened Garments
- The practice of manufacturing and hand-screening garments offers opportunities for unique and artisanal clothing brands to stand out in the competitive fashion market.
Sectors Adopting This
- Fashion Apparel
- The fashion apparel industry can explore innovative ways to incorporate magazine covers into their clothing designs to attract trend-conscious customers.
- Print Media
- Print media companies have the potential to collaborate with fashion brands to create exclusive magazine cover designs for t-shirts, tapping into the fashion industry's reach and appeal.
- Artisan Clothing
