Start Me Up
Start Me Up is a plaid minidress with a lace yoke and engineered plaid applique letter that read the title of the popular Rolling Stones song, "Start Me Up". This garment was designed shortly after Chicago's 2013 Stanley Cup win. The sporty silhouette of the dress pays tribute to the trending sports-jersey-as-streetwear style in response to Chicago's NHL victory. The edgy plaid, which is a staple of rock n' roll culture, demonstrates the relationship between sporting events and the music most often used to create the atmosphere. This fabric Print also provides and opportunity for clever engineered plaid lettering, resulting in a bold statement.

The lettering on this dress was done in the same font that is most recognized from sports merchandise to reflect the original inspiration. The letters were cut in a contrasting plaid fabric, but were arranged so that the plaid pattern spans across the entire garment, uninterrupted.
