squeeegeee introduces the polarity sweater. A two layer item that combines the squeee-neck t-shirt permanently fixed to a 100% cashmere sweater. These two unique pieces are held together by a single thread, connected by a deconstrct yellow lurex label at the nape of the neck. This structure allows a unique flow and offers the wearer the opportunity to admire each element in its entirety. Intrigued by the dichotomy of each garment, squeeegeee looks to the future. Combining the grandmotherly essence of a blank cashmere with an LA sunny staple. The v-neck t-shirt is an often overlooked and underestimated garment. The squeee neck conveys a sense of buoyancy and leisure. All shirts have a past life: yellowing, stains, warping, cracking and fraying simply make the product richer. The style is so casual it seems enlightened. Carefully careless. Hand-printed in Los Angeles with feelings, mistakes and emotions. Each one is unique.
"When the real world is transformed into mere images, mere images become real beings — dynamic figments that provide the direct motivations for a hypnotic behavior. Since the spectacle’s job is to use various specialized mediations in order to show us a world that can no longer be directly grasped, it naturally elevates the sense of sight to the special preeminence once occupied by touch: the most abstract and easily deceived sense is the most readily adaptable to the generalized abstraction of present-day society. But the spectacle is not merely a matter of images, nor even of images plus sounds. It is whatever escapes people’s activity, whatever eludes their practical reconsideration and correction. It is the opposite of dialogue. Wherever representation becomes independent, the spectacle regenerates itself."
