The Burlexe Boylexe Unisex tank top has a sparkling history, of course it does. Originally a riff on the famous Vivienne Westwood ‘Tits’ tee, it featured heavily in the original Boylexe shows and was worn by all of our cast (in lieu of proper costumes!). Occasionally, it was turned into a midriff-exposing cut-off or paired with collar and cuffs in a tribute to the Chippendales.
Now it’s back and fabulous for everyone and for every occasion, ahem.
The boylesque T-shirt was originally conceived by Burlexe creator Howard Wilmot and designed by our long-term collaborator Damion LeCappelain.
It’s since transferred onto a tank top and had an ’80s update to give it that retro underground feel for all your fashion needs. You’re welcome.
The design features a photographed chest in pink with a special effect around the edges in yellow. Our Boylexe colours.
Oh and here’s all the tiny details that you may want to know until that day we have a real world physical store where you can touch the cloth in person. He-hee.
