Who is Our Little MissWit? MissWit is tragic, sinful,
cynical, sarcastic FUN. MissWit just don't care about your
rules, your design paradigms, the stuff just comes out
of her. —Do you know her?— Correct her.
Just try. She might listen, maybe she won't care. She
just won't care!! MissWit knows what she doesn't know!
Oh, but don't be fooled, of COURSE MissWit CARES! ---
She is a sensitive little mizz -- a contradiction as
the day is long. She loves Neil Diamond and classic
rock, hippity hop and be bop with equality -- like a
mother loves all of her children. She adores old photos,
true true brunch with a pasta and eggs on the same plate,
and is a big fan of chips with lunch! What MissWit remembers,
is nothing compared to what she forgets! She can wound
with her eyes and ruin your faith with her casual lies,
no, wait, that is someone else. She sings in the shower,
with no voice to speak of, she rides the subway, uptown,
downtown, all around the park, and throws dollars to
street performers.
MissWit is an HONEST ENGINE, she is
HOMEGROWN, HOMEMADE, PIG HEADED and HUMBLED PIE. Sure,
MissWit gets down, that is why she needs you, MissWit
needs you!!! Calling all yous! But, rest assured —
MissWit will be there for you, if you just let her dare!
 The
Story Behind MissWit
MissWit is a whimsical, satirical, fashionable tee shirt
line with a fun and funny website created by (me) Deborah
Goldstein a Brooklyn, New York resident, who recently
received her graduate degree in social work and community
organizing from Hunter College School of Social Work.
For almost three years amidst my studies, I modestly
combined both passions.
Somewhat effortlessly, my t-shirts
- ranging from the sublime joke to the delicate etchings
of artists - manage to flicker a pulse with fashion
hounds as well as sparking internet chatter and praise.
So be it! I first hit the zeitgeist on a whim and prayer,with
the simply stated t-shirt "And I want to thank
Harvey Weinstein," in March 2003. I made 5 shirts
for friends, as a joke, but displayed for just one day
in a Brooklyn boutique a reporter from The New York
Observer, observed it. The shirt was subsequently
featured on E! News Live, The New York
Post and CNBC. Some wit, a good name and
a domain.
A star was born. But fame is fleeting.
The wave of press and sales led me (aka MissWit) to
develop a slew of t-shirts and hit the pavement full
speed ahead. The goal? Creativity, sassy humor, organic
style, personalized design and keeping it real -- real
people are behind the work. With the help of my brother,
I also developed a fun and entertaining web site (www.misswit.net)
where MissWit is free to roar - and the visitor is safe
to roam and learn the origins and tales behind every
shirt.
Today, I stand in the shadow of my
alter ego the pop culture fashionista — MissWit.
