Two fabulous new Desigual men’s shirts now available at Angel Vancouver

These two new Desigual shirts arrived in our spring shipment — one has the face of Albert Einstein, the other has the iconic image of Marilyn Monroe. The Einstein image, showing the famous physicist sticking his tongue out, was shot on his 72nd birthday on March 14, 1951, by photographer Arthur Sasse, who was trying to persuade Einsten to smile for the camera — playfully, he stuck out his tongue instead. It became one of the most popular photos ever taken of Einstein. In 2009, the original signed photograph was sold at auction for $74,324, a record for an Einstein photo.

Some recent hand-painted T-shirts I did for Christmas

Image

Here are a few of the custom shirts that I hand-painted before Christmas. I stopped taking custom orders the week before Christmas while I worked painting the final orders and shipped them off. I also sold every hand-painted kids shirt that I had in my store.

But I’m taking orders again and I’m working on some new shirts to restock my store, Angel Vancouver, which is at No. 2 Powell in the Gastown district of Vancouver. Call (604) 681-0947 or email me at jackie@angelpaint.com

Angel Vancouver is also an authorized dealer of Desigual clothing (the company is based in Barcelona). We carry both the men’s and women’s lines from Desigual and have one of the most extensive collections in the city.

We are expecting a new shipment of Desigual any day. And we ship anywhere in Canada and the U.S.
