This awesome rib knit tee celebrates the icon that is Grace Jones. While the front proudly announces, "I'm a Grace Jones fan", the back features an illustration for her debut studio album Portfolio released by Island Records. Born in Jamaica, Jones gained notoriety in the 70s as a model, and the fashion world became enthralled by her dark skin tone and androgynous features. Jones worked for designers like Yves St. Laurent, Kenzo Takada, and Azzedine Alaia, and she graced the covers of magazines like Elle and Vogue Paris.
In 1977, she signed a deal with Island Records and recorded her album Portfolio with the help of legendary disco producer Tom Moulton. While the record failed to impress critics, Jones began to garner a cult following. She was celebrated for her raunchy and flamboyant live shows that earned her the title of the "Queen of the Gay Discos", and tracks like "I Need a Man" became a hit among gay club audiences. Her following grew even stronger as the 70s came to a close, and she began to embrace a more new wave sound with albums like Warm Leatherette and Nightclubbing.
Fits like a modern adult women's extra small. This shirt is rib knit and stretchy
