If I had this, I’d wear my 2010 Lady Gaga concert t-shirt under it.<\/p>\n

This reminds me that I’ve been meaning to make some platinum nipple jewelry. Note to self!<\/p>\n

UPDATED TO ADD: I can’t BELIEVE I wrote about this with no mention of Vivienne Westwood’s iconic 1970s “Tits” t-shirt<\/a>, famously worn by punk goddess Siouxsie Sioux as well as many punk dudes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

My shoe-designing friend Terry de Havilland<\/a> was the one who reminded me of the long history <\/a>of the titty top. The Look blog <\/a>has great information on this, reporting that tits-on-a-tee didn’t start when Westwood’s partner Malcolm McLaren found a boobacious t-shirt<\/a> in a novelty shop in New Orleans in 1975. Janusz and Laura Gottwald, students at Rhode Island School of Design<\/a>, made a tits tee back in 1969 (and drummer Charlie Watts of the Rolling Stones can be seen wearing it on the cover of the 1971 live album Get Yer Ya-Ya’s Out<\/em><\/a>.) At the very same time<\/a>, in London, artists John Dove and Molly White<\/a> were doing a tits tee of their own. It was an incident of multiple discovery<\/a>! (It was Dove’s and White’s Wonder Workshop that Terry pointed me to<\/a>.) One thing I like about the Dove-White shirt is that the model is known: it was Pat Booth’s enviable torso, photographed by her boyfriend John Wedge, which was silkscreened onto a t-shirt.<\/p>\n

According to John Dove<\/a>, Westwood and McLaren saw the Wonder Workshop shirt in 1974. So there you have it:\u00a0 the long and winding history of topless tops.\u00a0 Now I’m going to get lost in the Wonder Workshop site<\/a> for a few hours! I mean … my almost-husband Paul McCartney in a strawberry jacket<\/a>! This is a goldmine. I think John Dove and Molly White<\/a> are my new obsession. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
