| Place of origin |
Twisted Twee aims to produce fun, sardonic and tongue-in-cheek childrenswear.
The equal opportunities T-shirt challenges the modern idea of putting girls in pink and boys in blue as well as the imagery stereotypically associated with each gender, in this case the colour pink and the use of lacey imagery for a boys garment. Also available is a blue 'Girl' version with a digger truck image.
