Brown Tshirt

T-shirt is one of the most popular clothing for men. It is easy to be manufactured, easy to wash and at a low price. It is suitable for everyday work (sometimes under a regular shirt), free time and sports. It can be emblematic, for example in football, where the team T-shirt can be a cult.

Hollywood and celebrities inevitably had the greatest impact in promoting something as emblematic as the T-shirt. By 1950, the T-shirts were still considered kind of underwear, whilst John Wayne, Marlon Brando and James Dean shocked Americans by showing that “underwear” on the TV. T-shirts became very popular after the role of Marlon Brando in “Streetcar Named Desire”. Later on, Elvis Presley helped the success of the T-shirt. In the early 1960s of T-shirts became means of expressing art and the introduction of screen printing guaranteed its success as a fashion accessory. In addition, the shirt began to be used as a tool for political protest, as at certain times and certain places, it became a symbol of revolution and change. Rebellious considered that wearing shirts they are still wearing underwear in public.

Nowadays the production of prints on T-shirts is a lucrative business for commercial advertising or for souvenirs. Rock and roll groups first and later on any kind of music idols and professional sport teams make huge profits from the sale of shirts with different prints. Several tourist companies decorate T-shirts with different names and symbols of resorts and tourist places all over the world. T-shirts with bold slogans did become popular in Britain in 1980. A pioneer in this respect is the designer Katherine Hamnet, which gave rise to T-shirts with big slogans printed. Gradually shirts flourished as a form of personal expression of fashion T-shirt .

The big stylish upsurge of the T-shirt started in late 1980s and especially in 1990s, when T-shirts with a logo of a particular designer brand became extremely popular. This fashion that is still alive, allows people to show their taste for designer brands in an inexpensive manner. Examples of such T-shirts are imprinted with the logo of Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren, The Gap and many others. Gradually, a common practice became companies of all kind to produce T-shirts with their corporate logos as part of their overall advertising campaigns. Today no one thinks about T-shirt as underwear: it is one of the best ways to express personality, style and well-being.
