For most of us, the experience of buying a graphic tee is or at least was once associated with things like fishing through a bin at Urban Outfitters, sifting through racks of clothing at the local thrift store, or scrolling through eBay for hours on end. Money aside, this was simply the price you had to pay for the perfect tee. Today, however, for those looking for a high-end experience, things seem to have drastically changed. If luxury is your middle name and big budgets are your game, there’s a new wave of graphic tees to shop from the comfort of your laptop or your favorite boutique, courtesy of some of our favorite designers. Think: Loewe, Gucci, Valentino, and more, all producing their own versions of the staple, thanks to the rise of streetwear as a major trend.

Editor-at-Large

Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here at Who What Wear, and she is currently Editor-at-Large. It was a less expected route, seeing as she was graduating from business school at USC when this all began, but it has turned out to be the best one for her. Fast-forward to 2020, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was an intern starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to classic pieces and neutral basics but will always make an exception for something colorful, printed, or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a good party is dressing up for one. On weekdays, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious for dinner and trying to force her husband to watch 90 Day Fiancé.
