‘A Woman Who Fights and Advances’ — Sonia Rykiel Quote Tee | RQuéV Typographic Statement Tee — Muscle Tank

“I’ve never been interested in dressing one woman. What’s interested me was to have a philosophy. I wanted to dress women who wanted to look at themselves, to stand out—to be women who were not part of the crowd. A woman who fights and advances.” Sonia Rykiel, the “Queen of Knitwear” whose 1960s Poor Boy sweater and exposed, inside-out seams dressed the liberated women of the Left Bank, wanted a philosophy rather than a single muse. She cut clothes for the woman who looks hard at herself and steps out of the crowd — “a woman who fights and advances,” as her obituaries later quoted her. She dressed the going-somewhere version of a woman, the one already in motion.
