| Object history | By 1997 A&A were known internationally for their T-shirt designs. |
| Production | Attribution note: The 'WOW' collection was designed in 1992. This was Antoni & Alison's first collection that was primarily devoted to the T-shirt. Garments were still hand screen-printed by Antoni Burakowski. This design from the 'Wow' group of material focuses on the logo itself through its progression and colour changes. 'Wow' began as bold thick green letters painted by Roberts and ends as vacuum-packed samples screen printed onto cotton. |
