Twist-Tee

Sick n Twisted sounds more like Marilyn Manson’s calling card than a blogshop sporting wicked tees for men and women. But that’s the kind of attention the four entrepreneurial buddies wanted. “It’s a shout for attention and we think it reflects what we are selling,” explains Ivy. Hopping on the everlasting tee trend in January this year, the blogshop was envisioned as a way to escape the “usual working adult plight,” which, as Ivy put it, means “we wanted something more out of our lives than just slaving away for companies and hopefully we can achieve something before our midlife crises.” With its sights firmly set on success, their unpretentious business model is a foregone conclusion. T-shirts are the roaches of the fashion world—the trend just doesn’t die and Sick n Twisted knows it. Occasionally Ivy and friends will bring in dresses, blouses and accessories, but they always remain true to their love for tees. Quirky with a touch of irony sums up most of their T-shirts. With attention-grabbing graphics and irreverent slogans, you’d be hard-pressed to sniff out something cheekier to wear while keeping it strictly PG-13. At RM30–RM40 for men’s tees and RM25–RM35 for female’s tees, the prices are good enough for you to mix it up with some variety whenever the mood strikes.
