�Student Weekly� goes T-shirt shopping

From mixed media collages and shocking neon prints to subtle graphics emphasising political ideas, there were designs galore on display at Fat Radio�s fourth annual T-shirt Festival.

• Did you know •
T-shirts were originally worn as underwear and were not commonly worn as visible clothing until the 1950s.

From noon until late at night, the hip Bangkok crowd descended on Impact Exhibition Center on May 31 to browse through more than 300 T-shirt stalls and groove to non-stop live music from popular indie bands.

Artists from independent music labels displayed T-shirts and accessories, all available to the strolling crowds in search of impressive items to suit their style.

Student Weekly went along to get some photos of the festival and some of the participating celebrities with their trendy tee�s.
