Have you ever seen those flashy shirts on celebrities? Made by Hartnett, those bold and beautiful creations come in all shapes and sizes and they are absolutely dripping in personality. While we may never be able to channel the style of a famous actor, we can always strive to embody the sentiment behind their iconic style choices. After all, a bold shirt can be easily transformed into a plain shirt, with a bit of paint and some studs on the chest area, but the point is that it took a lot of courage to wear what they wore because the outfit wasn’t ‘on trend' and it certainly wasn’t practical. Those shirts are a symbol of strength, of individuality, and of pride. They define those very things in the person wearing them. While we may never be able to wear those shirts ourselves, we can always respect those who do and emulate their style.
Emma Fishwick, founder of Fishwick Plumes, a luxury embroidery company, has this to say about style and pride: “I love an embroidered flag to represent a country, a team, or a cause – anything that people can rally behind. Pride is such an incredible thing. When you wear something with pride, it doesn’t matter if it’s the most expensive or the cheapest item in the world. You’re still proud. That’s the beauty of it. If you call yourself a proud American or a proud Brit – however you want to identify yourself – then you can wear a bit of Americana or Britishism with pride, because you’re showing the world your pride in being an American or a Brit.” We couldn’t have said it better ourselves.
How To Wash Your TV Show T-shirts
We’re big fans of the new Netflix series “Making a Murderer” and how they brought the story of Steven Avery to life. One of the most fascinating aspects of the show is how they were able to capture the spirit of the seventies, when the original “Making a Murderer” was released, as well as the overall look of the series. The shirts worn by the main characters, particularly those by Brendan Dassey, bring that spirit to life and you can actually see the resemblance to the style of the seventies in the gallery, alongside the t-shirts worn by the characters.
With some simple design ideas and tips from the pros, you can easily bring that seventies vibe to your own wardrobe, turning your regular t-shirts into something unique and attractive. Here are some of our top DIY tips.
Try Something New With The T-shirt Text
Bringing the spirit of the seventies into your clothing has a lot of potential, especially with your t-shirts. With some simple design ideas and tips from the pros, you can easily bring that seventy’s vibe to your own wardrobe, turning your regular t-shirts into something unique and attractive. Here are some of our top DIY tips.
Firstly, take a look at the overall shape and the style of the shirt you’re wearing. For example, if you have an oval shaped body, you may want to go for a tie-waist dress that accentuates that shape. If your chest area is more on the smaller side, you may want to consider the long sleeve top.
As for the style of the shirt, you may want to look at the example photos we’ve provided and see how some of the most well-known designers have interpreted the idea of bringing the style of the seventies into your clothing. One thing is for sure – you’ll never go wrong!
Experiment With Dye
Dye is a great way to make your clothing look unique and personal to you. Many people, particularly those who have a love for tattoos, have been switching to a darker colour for their shirts to see how it will look on them. The best part is that you can use whatever colour you want as long as it is something fairly neutral. You can also use temporary inks for an added effect.
As for the results, there are no wrong answers here. All you need to do is try something new and see how it turns out. Having said that, if you are particularly happy with the colour you’ve used, you may want to go for a wash as the dye can stain easily.
We can’t speak highly enough about this technique. Not only does it allow you to experiment with different colours to see what works best for you, but it also serves as a great way to add a bit more personality into your clothing. Do you have any tattooed clothing you’re not really happy with? Give dye a try!
Patch It Up
A great way to bring the spirit of the seventies into your shirt is to experiment with different techniques to see what you can come up with. Some people are really into die-cutting, while others prefer to use different patterns or pictures on their shirts. The important thing is that you’re having fun with it and that you’re not necessarily looking to make a fashion statement.
It may be a bit tricky to find the pattern or shape that suits you best, but once you’ve found it you’ll wonder how you ever got along without it. You can also take a quick trip to your local tailor, who can help you make alterations to give that seventies vibe you desire. Having said that, we’ve all been there and know how aggravating it can be to go somewhere and have them tell you there’s no way they can make you look even remotely similar to the chic you want to be.
