Style Spotting: Summery Tops with a Warhol Past

Written by emilyc

I am always on the hunt for items of clothing that have a past or backstory that goes beyond “found this amongst last season’s poly-blends at Forever 21.” It could be vintage, from a thrift store, for a good cause, or by an intriguing designer, and I have found the latter in Dawn Mayo’s line entitles Chelsea Flower.

What you need to know about Dawn Mayo, aside from the fact that she can enliven your summer shirt wardrobe like no other, is that she began her career as Andy Warhol’s stylist! Her Chelsea Flower line has been in existence since 2008, and carries a celebrity following that includes such chic icons as Blake Lively, Rihanna, Sophia Vergara, Lauren Conrad, and Marisa Miller.

Now get yourself to Intermix, and start a conversation with your new shirt!
