BEAUTY & YOUTH UNITED ARROWS introduces a special graphic tee that spotlights one of Banksy's most [iconic street art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/silent-echoes), the 'Girl with Balloon.' The apparel design is created in celebration of the moment where Banksy's Girl With Balloon self-shredded right after it sold for over $1 million USD.

The graphic tee arrives in two different iterations, with the tonal options of either black or white as the base for both. The front of the graphic tees showcases the iconic visual in full, whereas the rear features the same graphics but with [faux shredded accents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gap-1). The back of the monochromatic tees is also accompanied by text that reads "There's not a SHRED of evidence for his art."
