DDT proposes contemporary art look for college unis
DDT has taken the position that many college unis are taking “tacky nouveau" to new levels. Southern rednecks who buy their clothes at neighborhood yard sales have nothing on the “jammies” that schools like Oregon and San Diego State have been wearing. Now, even more schools have adopted new looks and change them weekly. Maryland leads the clothes hoss movement of 2011 with 30-some-odd combos they intend to wear. The state flag motif they wore for the Miami game, opening day, was only an hors d’eouvre.
Nike is behind many of the unis. Their pro-combat series have been, almost without exception, ludicrous. Most notable was Georgia’s season opening dress-out for the Boise game. Boise also wore a Nike outfit, but their’s were mostly white and weren’t too bad. Georgia’s looked like something the Vatican guard would wear. DDT proposes that schools go ahead and take fashion to the next level. The works of abstract expressionist Jackson Pollock and the hard-edged minimalist look of Piet Mondrian would be ideal for college footbal unis and would not only dazzle but might teach college footbaw players something about art history.
Once the theme is established, the possibilities of artisitc affectation are endless.
