MissWit.net
is a collaboration of time and space, years of finely tuned humor,
designers, wit makers, doers and dreamers. MissWit.net is a platform
for serious wit, serious fun and serious experimentation. We are here to design original works and custom made shirts be it a small business, non-profit organizations, weddings, birthday parties, retirement, gag gift or...whatever!
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.
Clients include: DancenowNYC, The NYC Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and
Transgender Community Center, Yoga of Sausalito, Develop Don't Destroy
Brooklyn, Queens Community House, Si Se Puede Sunset Park Woman's Collective, LEAP - Learning Through Expanded Arts Programs, The Berkely Carroll School Park Slope, Tibago Political Campaign, Hannah's Bat Mitzvah, Grandpa's
95th and more.
Deborah, MissWit and the shirts have been featured in Newsday,
The NY PostÍs Page Six, New York Magazine, People
Magazine, Star Magazine, Metro NY, The
NY Sun, The Observer, Penthouse, Wonkette.com,
San Diego Jewish Journal and numerous political, entertainment
and fashion blogs.
