T's 4 U
J'imagine que LFW ne soit pas pour tout le monde, ma cherie
If you want to get something off your chest, the best place to vocalise it is often, funnily enough, across your chest.

And Designers Julian and Sophie have got something to say.

As the bi-annual fashion circus rolls into town, the duo are responding to The British Fashion Council's current London Fashion Week Brochure with their series of sloganeering t-shirts.

The 86 page London Fashion Week booklet designed by Nathan Church, features the graphic slogan 'I AM LFW'. It has been superimposed on photographs of Nicholas Coleridge - the chairman of The British Fashion Council - and Mayor Ken Livingstone among others.

Although they are in danger of biting the hand that feeds them, Julian and Sophie have responded with their own declaration of independence. The anarchic designers, are offering their own long sleeved "limited edition off-schedule t-shirts". Choose from three designs, which proudly announce that, 'I AM NOT LFW', 'U R NOT LFW', and 'WE R NOT LFW', and Julian and Sophie will handmake your T-shirt for £60.

If that's a bit pricey for you to reaffirm UR individuality, they will email a jpeg or pdf file to U free of charge. Simply print out the image on heat transfer paper and iron onto your garment of choice.

If all this sartorial verbosity has got you into a T-shirt customising mood, then trot off down to the new Rude 'Let's make T-shirts' store at 14 Hanbury St. The store opens on 15th Feb, and alongside their signature sketchy prints, they will be running a screen printing workshop. They will be on hand to help you make your own t -shirt printed with your own design.

Go on, it'd be rude not to! And no-one wants to look churlish.
