Product Description

In her address My Favorite Team Sux Shirt Hopkinson described sport as “a unifying force that brings together people from all walks of life”. So it’s worth asking why these Olympic uniforms, worn by our brightest champions, reflect such a narrow demographic of Australia. The pleated skirt, chino shorts and boxy blazer are basically a private-school uniform. Hotpants composite featuring (L-R) Emma Corrin is seen arriving at the 80th Venice International Film Festival 2023, Sydney Sweeney attends the Miu Miu Womenswear Fall/Winter 2024-2025 show and Kristen Stewart is seen on March 12, 2024 in New York City. Since we have so many talented fashion designers that capture Australia’s relaxed lifestyle, the uniform feels like a lost opportunity. Alix Higgins, PE Nation, Lucy Folk, Song for the Mute, Nagnata and Beare Park (who last year designed an off-pitch formal wear suit for the Matildas) are all adept at capturing our country’s collective energy. We’re also home to the biggest surf brands in the world, including Rip Curl and Billabong – a legacy we have successfully leant into before. Athletes wore Mambo to the opening ceremony of the 2000 Sydney Olympics (and they looked really good). Plus, at the end of July when the Games kick off, Paris will be very warm. Standing in his linen blazer, an odd choice for the height of summer, Malouf expressed some restrained concern. “It’s going to be hot over there,” he said. “The fact that these are pretty breathable and we’re not going to be absolutely cooking is a really nice touch.”

By the early 2010s My Favorite Team Sux Shirt the phrase fast fashion had been in circulation for a couple of decades, but had yet to acquire a widespread pejorative connotation. Though the 1990s saw the rise of a robust anti-sweatshop movement, the public consensus a few decades later was that fast-fashion stores were a different kind of retail experience, but not necessarily an evil one. H&M and Target were producing highly coveted designer collaborations with Alexander McQueen, Rodarte and Rei Kawakubo of Comme des Garçons. Cheap clothing chains were exploding all over the country. News articles about the industry’s growth were positive, or at least neutral: accessible, stylish clothes were seen as a common good. The rare hesitations – like a 2008 New York Times article that considered “a feeling of unease at how the ultra-cheap clothes can be manufactured” – were afforded significantly less space. The sewing bloggers, however, were already voicing their concerns. They called out the chains who ripped off styles by independent designers to a comically exact degree (clothing isn’t copyrightable under current laws, so the chains got away with it). I learned that any new clothing I could ever afford would be far from a fair price for all the skill and labour involved in its creation. Garment workers were toiling in bleak conditions, working 16-hour days, seven days a week for pennies in crumbling factories full of toxic chemicals in China, India and Vietnam; cheaper price tags pointed to worse conditions and, unimaginably, even worse pay. I also learned about the environmental costs – the oil to run the equipment, the factory pollution spewed into the air, the energy required to fly and ship garments around the globe, and the billions of pounds of fabric waste destined for landfills, never to decompose.
