House of the Gods
Friday, September 18th, 2009
In 1999, rock and roll wonderlabel Buddhistpunk was launched, and subsequently spent years collaborating with artists such as The Rolling Stones, Blondie and the Prodigy, before expanding with House of the Gods in 2006. If you like your rock t-shirts deconstructed to perfection with an extra shot of attitude, this label is for you. Available on ASOS, I felt I just had to select my favourites - a sort of online window shopping experience.
The cage version of the famous Rolling Stones t-shirt is probably the most impressive piece of craftwork I’ve seen on ASOS in a while (although I’m biased since I’m in love with all rock and grunge clothes), while the Motley Crue number is wonderfully voluminous and would look just perfect teamed up with some slashed leggings or skinny jeans. The Pink Floyd oversized t-shirt dress hides a very sneaky secret - it’s actually backless, and while most would pair it with spike heels, I think some serious studded wedge boots would be in order. Frankly, you don’t get much more rock and roll than the Rolling Stones, which is why as well as the classic Lips design, I put both the Mick Jagger and the ‘Mick-and-Keith’ t-shirts into my selection, and as for the shredded Blondie t-shirt? I really don’t think I even need to explain why that one’s here. Really want to know? Then call me, on the line baby, call me, call me anytime….
