1. Upcycling and Refashioning
GENERATION T

2. What is Generation T?
Generation T was created by the artist, Megan Nicolay, an obsessive DIYer.
The T-shirt is Megan’s preferred medium - unparalleled in the world of fashion in terms of comfort, versatility, and longevity - and never in short supply.
Everybody has a stash of old T-shirts won at sporting events, brought home from rock concerts, gathered at thrift stores, or saved as a random leftover of a relationship that didn’t quite work out.

3. What is Generation T?
Each T-shirt has a story, and it would be, sentimentally speaking, out of the question to get rid of it.
So, in the spirit of environmentalism and anti- consumerism, Megan resuscitates, recycles, and refashions them.
