An incredible and rare vintage mens long sleeve t-shirt from the 90s by renowned British artists John Dove & Molly White (whose printed artworks have been displayed at the Tate & V&A) for the London boutique, For Design Sake, founded by Saint Martin's graduates, Denis Murphy and Frances Dove. Handmade using an overprinting technique, probably by using acid on a silkscreen to create a vivid, deconstructed fairisle sweater design based on a print from 1970.
A true piece of wearable art, perfect for collectors. It is reversible, and can be worn with the exposed seams showing or worn the other way round with a more subtle, x-ray style print on the outside.
