HISTORY OF THE T-SHIRT

The t-shirt or simply tee is a piece of clothing made of fabric, without buttons and without collar, which covers the bust of the wearer.

It can be made with long sleeves or short sleeves, in natural fabrics like cotton, or in synthetic fibers. There are plain-colored or multi-colored fancy t-shirts.

Born at the end of the 19th century as a work clothes for sailors and later became part of the uniform of American soldiers in the 1940s, during the 1900s it became one of the most versatile garments used for generations, dressing people of all ages , social class and nation.

Famous actors such as James Dean or Marlon Brando wore the typical white short-sleeved T-shirt over a pair of jeans on the big screen: from that moment on, the t-shirt definitely entered contemporary fashion.

It was in the eighties that the t-shirt established itself as a creative garment and a communicative vehicle through ornamental friezes and writings: the message transmitted through the t-shirts assumed the most disparate and ironic forms and meanings (the first smile appeared on some t-shirt), advertising, political or geographical.

Even today, the T-shirt is a piece of clothing considered the basis of must-haves and the most versatile garment in the wardrobe of each of us.
