Pigpen Designs, a Seattle based tee shirt and club wear brand, was founded in 1995 by 40-year-old chemist Gary Phillip. The brand marketed heavily to the local rave and skate scene, carrying experimental clothing such as a piece described in a 1997 Los Angeles Times article as "wide-legged blue camouflage trousers teamed with a camouflage belt and toy soldiers inside the plastic-covered accessory."
This zip up top is an excellent example of 90s experimental rave wear with a cut out vinyl star that allows for some peak-a-boob-age.
Materials:Vinyl
Condition:Overall good shape. The blue vinyl is soft and flexible - its backed with fabric, so there are a few scattered holes. This is to be expected for age and the fabric type. There is also a black mark along the white back collar. Overall presents well.
Estimated modern size: Marked a size small.
Measurements (all measured flat): Shoulder: 15.5 in Chest: 17 in Length: 22 in
All garments have been cleaned prior to arriving at your doorstep. We use biodegradable detergent and other methods of cleaning that are gentle on vintage and the earth. For garments that can stand water submersion, we recommend hand washing. If you have questions about how to launder a piece from our shop, please reach out.
Ensuring proper fit
Measurements for each garment are taken while it is lying flat. We provide an estimated modern size equivalent, however the best way to ensure proper fit is to measure either yourself or a similar garment in your wardrobe. Please reach out if you have questions on how to compare either measurements to ours.
