Dance Party Massacre Summer '10

posted 2 months ago by adakoulas

Hi Emptees,

I’m not one to post on these boards a lot, but wanted to share the new DPM Summer '10 line. Thought maybe some of you would dig it, or least people would give their 2 cents. (I know you guys are vocal.)

The new tees and tanks were inspired by black and white movies, biker gangs, and the mean streets of the city while still combining influences of horror and fun like we usually do. Also changed up some garment details, and did a Look Book and video.

Matt Skiff, Joe Kelly, and Mario Jalbert worked on designs while I took a more Art Director approach for most of it all. Hope you dig!

    Ha ha, he BAILED! I think he was real bummed I didn’t reschedule the shoot.

    Thanks for the good words everyone. Really do appreciate it. Lots of work put in by everyone involved, and so far it seems to be worth it.

    Skiff has been a great part of the line for a few seasons now. Big ups to him.

    But the whole line is pretty solid.

    All the designs have been getting pretty equal love which is awesome, but glad people like the "Live While You Can" phrase as it’s on the bottom of all our tees now too! Basically our tagline.


    Thanks for checking out the line everyone. You can use code EMPTEES at checkout for 10% off.

    all really solid.

    wouldn’t it be 'live whilst you can' though?

    I dunno, but I do know that’s not how I speak!
    Sounds pretty stuffy even if it is correct grammar.

    I’m gonna have a hard time choosing between the "Horror Club" colorways. If you ever reprint those James Dean tees I think it looks really nice on white as it is on the girls tank tops.

    Those Horror Club colorways took forever to decide! So much longer than probably should take, ha. I really wanted a colorful one, I really wanted one with red blood, and I really dug the Black/Grey/Green combo once I did it up.

    I’ve got additional colorways already lined up for many of the designs, but that’ll depend on how well these sell.
