The Brian Wood Africa Vintage Logo limited edition tee is a re-issue from the designer's popular African Warlord collection from 2008. The patchwork t-shirt features 7 printed vintage logos that are showcased atop 4 panels of fabric that are pieced together.
This panelled tee features a raw sleeve finish and an appliqué square of authentic African mud cloth. The Brian Wood Africa Vintage Logo limited edition tee revives the designer's original concept for the iconic garment.
Exploring the Western impact on African traditions, the designer aims to define and translate the evolution of the nation's rich culture. This color-infused t-shirt is cleverly crafted to reveal a marriage of tradition and modernity. This can be seen through a fusion of both traditional crafting techniques and logo imagery that represents the West's industrial influence.
