Relic Hound Burial Noir Tee — Original

A chapel fresco on cotton. A ghost dog frozen at the exact wrong moment.

The centrepiece is a massive spectral greyhound — rendered after an antique museum engraving in bone-cream ink on deep black — caught rigid at the instant it presses its muzzle into an open stone reliquary. Its ribcage is taut, one paw raised, the bones of a saint's hand just visible beneath its jaw. Below the haunches, the figure dissolves: ink drips, scored scratches, the image eating itself against a vast dark field. It reads like something pulled from a chapel wall and worn on a body. The line work carries the weight and texture of an old master's engraving — high contrast, no colour, just that single cream monochrome illustration sitting high on the chest like it was always meant to live there.

The garment is vintage white — that specific off-white that photographs like aged paper and ages even better in real life. It's cut as a unisex fit, runs relaxed across the shoulders, and the cotton has the kind of soft, substantial hand that lets you know immediately it will hold its shape wash after wash.

Perfect for:

• Layering open over a black long-sleeve for a low-effort gallery-opening look

• Wearing tucked half-into wide trousers when the rest of the fit is already doing the talking

• The friend whose wardrobe runs entirely on dark aesthetics and deliberate choices

• Any occasion that calls for something singular — a birthday, a gift to yourself, a reason to get dressed

The details:

Garment colour: Vintage White

Artwork: Monochrome, black-and-cream — one ink, no colour

Fit: Unisex — size up if you want an oversized drop

Care: Machine wash cold, inside out, tumble dry low

If your wardrobe has room for one graphic tee that genuinely stops people mid-sentence — this is it. Add it to your cart before this run is gone.
