Believe it or not, we have been wearing t-shirts for over 100 years! It’s odd to think that we all love them so much since the classic tee is . . . well, pretty basic. There’s no bells and whistles. No pockets. Just some sleeves, a neckline, and a body. Come take a journey with us as we travel back in time to remind you of the t-shirt trends from each decade! (*Disclaimer - Some of these images you wish you could unsee!) 1930's First graphic tee ends up in The Wizard of Oz in 1938. 1940's The t-shirt is the official under-garment of the United States Army. 1950's Levis, cigarettes, leather, and a plain white tee was the original OOTD. 1960's Bands like the Beatles blew up the graphic t-shirt industry. 1970's Bell Bottoms + Ringer Tees = Peace & Love! 1980's Leggings, off the shoulder tees, and neon! Pop that knee, ladies! 1990's Mom jeans and a sleeve roll maybe the worst style out of all the decades! 😬 2000's Two words: MID. DRIFT. 2010's The Perfect Statement tee. 2020's Big and Boxy!!!
