Trio of vintage X-girl T-Shirts from our personal collection over at Nic Fit @nic_fit .

From Dazed @dazed :

“X-Girl: the cult brand founded by Sonic Youth bassist Kim Gordon @kimletgordon and stylist Daisy von Furth @daisyvonfurth in 1993. Starring in and narrating the Phil Morrison-directed film for the line’s second collection, Sevigny and her co-stars channel the somber outlooks of French New Wave heroines. They also echo the sentiments of a generation of American teenage girls who just wanted one thing from fashion: clothes that actually fit them properly. 

Created as a complement to the boys-only streetwear brand X-Large, X-Girl started out in LA, with a New York outpost on Lafayette Street following soon after. The brand’s champions read like a who’s-who of downtown 90s New York – Sofia Coppola, Spike Jonze, and Budapest-born artist Rita Ackermann were collaborators, artist Mike Mills designed the graphics, and Kathleen Hanna was a devotee. And the clothes? Dresses and ringer tees were fitted without being too tight – as von Furth exclaims in an MTV clip, “No Lycra!” – with subtle logos and a distinct 60s kick. As Sevigny later described the X-Girl style in an interview, “They were going almost for an androgynous kind of look, these very simple A-line dresses that were very Godard.” In other words, as von Furth adds: “The store was so Helvetica.” by @soniclife.archive

Thanks John for being gracious enough to part with it. It’s going to a good home and my kids will cherish it.
