La Prima Donna Loves You, Bitches!!!!

2009-06-19T18:00:00.000-07:00

And because we really do, we've decided to give you all a sneak preview of what we're working on. Pictured above is the "line sheet" for our first t-shirt design. If you've been following us on Twitter (and if you haven't been, get wit' it), you know that we are jumping into this from scratch. In other words, we are screen-printing our own designs, learning as we go. And this shit is NOT easy, to say the least. Much respect to the t-shirt designers who design and print; we had no idea.

Anyway...

We wish we could be posting pics of the actual printed tees, but unfortunately we killed our screens after we (apparently) tortured, er, used enhanced interrogation methods ON them. LOL Be not dismayed, however, because we are still on the motherfucking grind. Keep your asses tuned in and your eyes peeled for the real deal and hopefully more designs!!!!!!

Love,

La Prima Donna

The colorways are done on the classic reebok omni lite pump and include not only tonal colors but lacelocks that go with each sin. Very simple yet eyecatching.
