Black PVC t-shirt
This Feline top was designed by Tanya Sheridan and Andrew Bishop. They started their label in 1986. After several years in a shop in Auckland's Wyndham Street, they moved to Century Arcade on High Street. Feline often used PVC for their garments. In the 1990s fabric mills developed new stretch wet look fabrics using PVC bonded to knitted fabrics. Andrew recalls that PVC garments were immensely popular with fashion stylists and customers.
