Designer tees are blowing out of the stores and their prices keep climbing. So far Balmain has the leading price tag on a "jewel sketched" tee for $1175. Close followers are Lanvin ($800-900) with their whimsically illustrated tees and Balenciaga ($400-500) who collaborated with artist and designer Brian Lichtenberg on a shoe t-shirt that will blow your socks off. Alexander McQueen's sculls are a shabby $295 and if that's still too pricey for you, check out Des Artistes whose Eco friendly designs seem to scream "buy me" with a $117 price tag.
No matter what you pay, you shouldn't ignore the printed graphics trend because it's here to stay for at least another couple of seasons. This is how your tee could become an investment...
