TEE UP YOUR LFW STATEMENT

-

Thanks to the current Y2K revival, the wry slogan T-shirt has been making the rounds in fashion of late. ‘But what do you mean by the “wry slogan T-shirt?”’ we hear you cry.

Well, think of the garments worn by Noughties starlets such as Britney Spears, post break-up with Justin Timberlake, who sent the tabloids into a frenzy via a shirt simply emblazoned with the words ‘DUMP HIM’.

In recent months, we’ve seen the stars of today sporting similar pieces. Charli XCX wore a ‘They Don’t Build Statues of Critics’ T-shirt by US label Praying ahead of the release of her Crash album; and this week’s ES cover star Julia Fox has been spotted in a ‘Cancelled Adjacent’ tee. But what slogan T-shirts should you wear to London Fashion Week to make a statement? Here are three that’ll really raise a wry smile, all available to shop now via cult brand Omighty. Apple Wallets at the ready.

1. ‘WHO’S YOUR DADDY?’

Nepotism is rife in the fashion industry. Get straight to the point by asking the question without having to say a word. £42 (o-mighty.com)

2. ‘I OCCUPY SPACE AND HAVE MASS, I BREATHE IN AND BREATHE OUT’

For when the inevitable feelings of insecurity begin creeping in. We’re all human after all, no matter how much Prada we may (or may not) be wearing. £42 (o-mighty.com)

3. ‘IF YOU DON’T HAVE ANYTHING NICE TO SAY… COME SIT BESIDE ME’

Whatever row you’re seated in at the show, you’ll make some fabulous new friends. £42 (o-mighty.com)
