“Excuse me little scene kid, did you wrap your shirt instead of you sandwich? Oh wait…my bad, that’s foil print.”
I thought foil print would be a trend of the early millennium, when scene kids were not scene, watchedSabrina the Teenage Witch, and shopped solely at Limited Too. Much to my displeasure, the shiny gold and silver printing has unfortunately carried over to what we now call the scene. In case you have taste and didn’t know what foil print it is, it is a metallic leaf that is laminated on to garments (aka, merch).
Foil print was once known only to Guidos and N*Sync, making its way onto the club scene with its highly reflective andblingtastic qualities. I guess it is only logical that scene kids eventually caught on. I mean, scene kids love to be flashy and not much is flashier than having your shirt match the grillzyou bought for halloween.
I don’t know why or how, but sometime in 2008, foil print took off. For twice the price, scensters strut around in the metallic leaf shirts, ready to catch some rays, or use their shirt as a mirror to fix their comb over.
As much as I may scoff at foil print, it does have two highly effective and formerly unknown uses:
-When camping, if you need help starting a fire, just angle the foiled “ETRO” of your Metro Station shirt at the sun, and with a bit of luck and some good widdling, your fire will get going in no time.
-Shrinky Dinks. Want to start your own jewelry line, but can’t afford to buy a shrink dink oven? Have no fear, you can wrap your c00l j3w3lry d3s1gnz in a foil print shirt, and pop them in the microwave for a minute to achieve similar results. In fact, the NASA tested technology in foil print shirts is the same one used for space blankets, which conducts the waves of heat in the same way a shrink dink oven.
To a scene kid, the beauty of foil print is that it combines American Apparel’s lovely lamé collection with a practical everyday shirt, hoodie, and/or booty shorts, making sure the spotlight stays on you Mr. scenester….or at least reflects off of you.
