NO BUSINESS IN BUSINESS

Topcrush is a Toronto based T-shirt line that has been around for about a year but seems to be way ahead of its time. Initially created by Jess Chen as a crafts project in the fall of 2005, she looked to both celebrities (particularly Larry Fishburn, Christopher Walken and Woody Allen) and sidewalk characture painters (for their simple yet quick details) for influence. It wasnt long before friends and strangers alike were making demands for t-shirts via myspace.

Currently she counts Data (of Star Trek fame), Klaus Kinski (the shirt that made her go serious), Dr. Who (the fella with the scarf), Vladimir Kato and Bill Cosby as some of her creations.

When asked about how long it maybe before the handdrawn picture/tshirts fade she said

"I know, that seems like a cop-out for not having something 100% permanent, but I really do feel that way. Noone is ever completely permanent about who they admire or deem a hero, not forever, people change."

Thats a lie Jess, Bobby Brown will ALWAYS BE KING.

Check out more Topcrush here and expect it to be in stores like Delphic soooooon.
