9 luxury souvenir tees you need in your life
The spirit of your summer hols, channelled into a high-end T-shirt
Been there, done that, got the T-shirt. But now you’re in Clapton in September and things are feeling considerably less holiday-ish. Suddenly that quasi-ironic keepsake isn’t quite so appealing.
Take it from us: there’s never been a better time to rock a holiday-print T-shirt - the type of garment usually restricted to sunny boulevards and tourist hotspots. Don’t believe us? See the range of cutting-edge designers here, all banging out variations on the theme.
“But will I not look and feel like an idiot while walking down Ridley Road?” you ask nervously. Absolutely not. A faux-souvenir T-shirt is the low-key style statement for AW18 - this season’s Off-White belt or Palm Angels track top. Pair one with slightly cropped, relaxed-fit trousers and a casual pastel cotton or chambray shirt over the top.
