What do you design?
We do men’s and women’s clothes – up to now it’s been mostly t-shirts with a crewneck sweatshirt, but we’re expanding into hats and looking forward to more customizable pieces or even just accessories to complement the clothing.

How does your line set itself apart from other lines?
We put nude women as the focus of our design on our shirts, I don’t know of any other line that does that. Most brands are logo based or a visual eyesore.
