Bigger. Bolder. Blonder: A blonde knows a good t-shirt when she sees one … and a good deal more. That’s according to award-winning Norwegian designer and artist Lise Ellingsen who is breaking all the clichés. With humor, style, and a healthy respect for the environment.
Blondes Make Better T-shirts is a line where the design of each tee is unique, fun and conceptual — playing off “blonde-ness”. But they’re smart — using only 100% sustainable, sweatshop-free and ethically responsible fabrics. One fabric, Promodal, is comprised of 40% beech tree and 60% eucalyptus tree. Another fabric is made of 50% recycled plastic bottles mixed with organic cotton.
The graphics are silk-screened by hand in California with water-based ink, and some of them are calling out to help endangered animals (both blonde and not blonde). The tees come with special care and wear labels so even a blonde can safely wash and dry them. Genius!
‘Blondes Make Better T-Shirts’ are priced at €48 and available at The White Door, Dublin & Dunleer, Co Louth or online www.thewhitedoor.ie
