American Apparel Helps You Take Big Bird Home



Closer look at the detailed t-shirt design

Since I am on a retail diet, one of the things I love to do now is what I call "online window shop."  While doing so the other day I came across these fantastic t-shirts from American Apparel, which captures the loveable characters from the landmark TV series "Sesame Street." My personal favorites being Elmo and Kermit the Frog, who I think I might have a slight crush on, although Miss Piggy has always been Queen Bee.

The uber trendy/quirky store and Sesame Street have joined forces to create limited edition classic t-shirts that will commemorate the 40th anniversary of Sesame Street this year.

According to A.A. graphic designer Carolina Crespo, it took some two months rummaging through eight discs and four decades worth of archived artwork from the late Jim Henson, famed puppeteer and creator of the groundbreaking television show and its legendary Muppet characters.


"The end result is a cast of characters and images that bring a modern feel to Sesame Street and a heritage to American Apparel," she said.




The unisex line is now sold in over 25 American Apparel stores worldwide including New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Tokyo and Berlin as well as its online store.
