![]() ![]() I tend to stay with old bands and obscure pop culture, as opposed to political statements, but I love this one because of the minimalist design, vintage vibe and who could disagree with a message like “girl power”?ĭolores Haze is a New York based label with heavy vintage inspiration using eco-friendly raw materials and manufacturing everything locally. So, when I saw the Girl Power t-shirt from Dolores Haze, it just worked. I am somewhat obsessed with graphic tees, as you may have noticed from posts like this one and this one. On the upside, this episode might have helped people think twice before they buy a seemingly innocent t-shirt. From all those involved in the process, which included a feminist NGO leaders, press, sales people and marketing, not a single person saw this coming, which says a lot about how the garment industry works. Not only because of the horrible irony that a t-shirt promoting feminism was made by women working under what most of us would consider unacceptable conditions, but because it highlights how little people think about where clothes are made. ![]() ![]() Do you remember that story about the feminist t-shirt being made in a sweatshop? It was back in 2014, but the hypocrisy behind that is still striking today.
