zaBigFatSnoop: River Island Went ARTee...

S
If you ever went to River Island's t-shirts department, you can't help but feeling succumbed into a massive underworld blackhole (there goes the underworld word again, lol!). Why? Coz most of the tees are given those decon look, with raw edges on the neck and the sleeves, and some in boiled cotton, very tumbled look and even with some bling, bling to add to the rock-n-roll edge. I think River Island is trying to compete with All Saints... no? :)
And new to the collection is this tees with some artwork on it. Not a typical printed tee, coz the art is really something to talk about. Like this white tee which has the Japanese art feel to it due to the sketch of trees in monochrome which spans right to the back. And to add to the edgy look, the fabric is partly sheer - coz the 'blotches' give a see-through look to it. The fit is awesome, and I love the notch neck for that extra oopmh! :)



Another tee that caught my eyes is this feather artwork, like it's being sketched with a pencil in the form of a Native American headgear. I think it's amazing, so kudos to the artist though. I like the raw edges on the neck and the sleeves which give it an edgy feel. The fit and fabric is amazing too.

River Island really rocks with those arTee! :)
