sound bites, provocative statements, and subversive takes on familiar logos — were so ubiquitous. A tee like these lets you broadcast what you think and feel every second you're wearing it. But isn't it curious that at those events where we tend to need a little help with conversation — awkward holiday parties — clothes that elicit anything other than "That looks nice!" are nowhere to be found?</div></div></div><div class="section-container" data-reactid="301"><div data-reactid="302"><div class="section-text" data-reactid="303">"That looks nice" hardly ever leads to a deep, buddy-making conversation. And, to be frank, saying, "that looks nice" is also a deflated kind of way to wrap up a year and look forward to the next. Why not say, "Let's be kind toward one another." Or even, "Yes! I see you, Queen!"</div></div><div class="section-ad" data-reactid="304"><span data-reactid="305">Advertisement</span><div class="ad" data-ad-size="1280x90,970x90,970x250,728x91,728x90,300x251,300x250,10x10" data-ad-position="A" id="ad-section-ad-A" data-reactid="306"></div></div></div><div class="section-container" data-reactid="309"><div data-reactid="310"><div class="section-text" data-reactid="311">So, we're going to be introducing T-shirts into our holiday-party wardrobe for the above reason — and because they're a fresh way to make fancy dresses and separates feel more like something <em>you'd</em> wear, and less like something the Lifetime<em> </em>movie version of you would wear. To help us out in this endeavor, we've turned to six of our favorite illustrators and artists whose work we've looked to for eye candy and wisdom in the past year — and have commissioned six one-of-a-kind T-shirts that communicate exactly what's on their minds.</div></div></div><div class="section-container" data-reactid="312"><div data-reactid="313"><div class="section-text" data-reactid="314">Because if we've learned anything from this year, it's that we're all better off if we talk to one another.</div></div></div><div class="section-container" data-reactid="315"><div data-reactid="316"><div class="section-image-container" data-reactid="317"><div class="section-image left" style="width:700px;" data-reactid="319"><div data-reactid="320"><div class="loading" data-reactid="321"><noscript><img src="http://s1.r29static.com//bin/entry/1a2/x/1708242/image.gif" class="loading"></noscript></div><div class="story-share image-shares" data-reactid="322"><a data-href="http://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.refinery29.com%2F2016%2F12%2F132377%2Fgraphic-tees-statement-shirt-style-tips%3Futm_source%3Dpinterest%26utm_medium%3Dpinterest_share&media=http%3A%2F%2Fs1.r29static.com%2F%2Fbin%2Fentry%2F1a2%2Fx%2F1708242%2Fimage.gif&description=For%20Holiday%20Parties%20This%20Year%2C%20Let's%20Get%20Behind%20The%20Conversation-Starter%20Tee%2B%23refinery29" data-pin-custom="true" data-reactid="323"><button class="fa fa-pinterest-p" data-reactid="324"></button></a></div><div class="content-caption" data-reactid="326"><div class="credit" data-reactid="327">Photographed by Sharokh Mirzai. </div><div class="description" data-reactid="328"><a href="http://isaarfen.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Isa Arfen</a> pants; <strong>RED Valentino</strong> dress; <strong>Sonia Rykiel</strong> corset; <strong>Frye</strong> Addison Belt, $148, available at <a href="http://www.thefryecompany.com/addison-belt/d/43982C26398?CategoryId=419&Colors=Black" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Frye</a>. </div></div></div></div></div></div></div><div class="section-container" data-reactid="329"><div data-reactid="330"><div class="section-text" data-reactid="331"><a href="http://tgoodman.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><strong>Timothy Goodman</strong></a></div></div></div><div class="section-container" data-reactid="332"><div data-reactid="333"><div class="section-text" data-reactid="334"><strong>The statement: </strong>"I enjoy writing out my own maxims on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/timothygoodman" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Instagram</a>, which are generally about my own vulnerability and fucked-up-ness.
