Photographic Artist T-Shirts

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

These Tees from IDEA and Dover Tribute Subculture Icons and Musicians

— October 10, 2016 — Fashion
IDEA and Dover joined up to release a line of artist t-shirts that feature some of the most celebrated icons in contemporary times.

Each is made up of a plain white material, with a large photograph at the center of the design. With the work of acclaimed creatives like Terry Richardson, Henrik Purienne and Collier Schorr in the mix, the artist t-shirts are as stylish as they are commemorative.

While the images that are supplied on each are black and white to give a vintage feel, a few are marked by neon lettering and other components which offer just the right amount of contrast. This is shown most prominently on a tee for Blondey, where the skateboarder's name is written in retro yellow lettering.
