Of course I love tshirts, especially graphic tees, but I have always found most graphic tees to have a horrible fit for a woman’s body. It has to do with keeping the retail cost low.

No not that ghetto–the Ghetto on Broadway. The design is taken from an 1890s Broadway poster. Isn’t it just sooo fab?
