concept
At the core of the «Baby, I’m a gangsta too» t-shirt is a fusion of pop culture and street aesthetic. My goal was to transform a conventional black oversized shirt into a standalone visual object while preserving its fundamental silhouette.
The central element is an original 2D print featuring a plush character wearing oversized headphones, complete with a chain and a paper rose. The design is built upon a striking contrast: a childhood toy juxtaposed with hip-hop cultural iconography.
The top of the composition features the concise white text, «Baby, I’m a gangsta too, ” which sets the overall tone for the garment.
Description
«Baby, I’m a gangsta too» T-shirt—a casual piece crafted in a relaxed oversized silhouette.
The model features a straight cut, dropped shoulders, short wide sleeves, and a crewneck finished with a ribbed band. The loose fit ensures comfort and allows for unrestricted movement.
The garment’s primary color is black. Centered on the chest is an original composition: white text in a graphic font alongside a large 2D character print. The printing is done using the DTG method, which ensures high detail and colorfastness through washing.
