Re-Issue

The breast of it.
Another unexpected splash of confidence via Vivienne Westwood and the re-issue of her iconic breast tee.
If I could manage to get my hands on an original from the 70s, would be the ultimate in punk nonchalance, but for now, I am happy to proudly sport my new limited edition version from OC. Its weird, I swear just knowing that I had a great pair of breasts on my shirt made me feel incredible – like I actually had them. Maybe it was the looks I’ve never received, but it was also a bit about wearing something that was once considered daring with conviction and poise.
Sometimes confidence comes from the inside, and sometimes it comes from wearing a t-shirt…

Every time i see the breast tee this song comes to my head

It’s impossible to me no to think to Cafe Tacuba’s Mtv unplugged each time.
I always thought this T was a real statement on a guy, don’t know why.
I would not like the attention wearing this.
I used to like VW but now can’t stand her. All those politically correct causes. She boasts that she invented punk. Give me a break. She had a shop. Let’s give Joe Strummer some credit.
I agree there are so many great tees but this sure is special. Would love to have one!

This is so awesome! I’ve been dreaming about owning one ever since I first got into The Sex Pistols and Siouxsie!
Well said !
I love the design but I would personally never want to wear a tee like this outside of a photoshoot. The amount of attention I receive can already be overwhelming at times – this would just be too much!
It’s not her design to reissue, it was conceived by Malcolm McLaren and the concept dates back to the fluxus art movement of the 1960s…

For Westwood to reissue this collection with no credit to Malcolm is extraordinary. It’s very sad – she’s just about rolling out that globe logo on anything she can to make money.
