Designer Collaborations: Would You Wear a T-Shirt With a Starbucks Logo?

I love coffee. In fact as I sit here writing this now, I have 8 cups brewing. I love fashion as you may have noticed. There is a Starbucks and a fashion designer on every corner of the New York streets. But you would you sport a t-shirt with the Starbucks logo even if it was designed by top talents?

In celebration of Starbucks 40th Anniversary, the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) tapped past winners to design limited edition t-shirts to be sold online at Starbucks and in select Nordstrom stores. Alexander Wang, Sophie Theallet, and Billy Reid have added their style to cotton tees in homage to the chain's caffeinated beverages.

There's no mention of whether the profits from these $85 tees go to the CFDA, Nordstrom or Starbucks themselves. However the designers selected were paid a fee to participate. Though die-hard fans of Alexander Wang, Sophie Theallet and Billy Reid will be able to purchase this collectors item inspired by the coffee brand.
