How did we miss this gem? Phenomenally talented illustrator Michael C. Hsiung designed this awesome t-shirt for Shirt.Woot, forever canonzing the glory and the follies of so many Where the Wild Things Are-inspired partygoers. The limited run of shirts sadly sold out at the beginning of December, but keep an eye out for more rad creations on Hsiung’s site!
I came across divine t-shirt designer Milton Carter’s site through an interview he conducted with The Fiery Furnaces’ graphic designer, Mike Reddy (Reddy’s work is rad too– especially his illustrated interpertation of the aforementioned band’s Blueberry Boat record). Carter’s t-shirts and bags are explicitly nautical, tropical, mellow and beachy, exuding an air of respect towards the natural world. With Ed Hardy T-shirts littering the fashion landscape, graphic T’s in general have become increasingly scrutinized– but luckily Carter’s work never crosses over into cheaply ironic or needlessly ostentatious territory, favoring simplicity in design over pointless rococco flair.
Our friends at Band of Outsiders stopped by Opening Ceremony in LA this week and dropped off some testers of the new WTWA T shirts. They were psyched. The shirts will be available all over soon enough. Amazingness!
Spike Jonze’s feature film rendition of Maurice Sendaks classic story Where The Wild Things Are has hit movie theaters worldwide.
The film represents years of work from hundreds of different artists, writers, photographers, musicians, actors, and creators of all degrees.
This place has been established to help shed some light on many of the small influences that converged to make this massive project a reality.
