Revolutionary road of T-shirts

Far from irrelevant today, modern celebrities have also shown their love of message-based T-shirts. Last year, fashion model Gigi Hadid wore a white cotton top emblazoned with the slogan "lol ur not zayn malik" to publicly endorse her boyfriend Zayn Malik, former member of British boy band One Direction. The gesture won her boyfriend's sweet (albeit not particularly grammatical) response on Instagram: "Thas ma girl". Hadid's friend and fellow fashion model Kendall Jenner also sported a famous slogan-emblazoned T-shirt – "I'm Yours for a Tenner Kendall Jenner" – for her 2016collaboration with House of Holland.

Be it plain comfortable or effortlessly sexy, a classic rock concert memory or everyone's favourite tourist souvenir, a harmless fashion triviality or a powerful political statement, the T-shirt remains an essential piece in everyone's wardrobe.
