September  9, 2014

Over at Provisions, we're all about collections of beautiful, useful products to help make the most of good food -- and we don't want you to miss out on the fun.

Today: This is how we do Fashion Week at Food52. (And we'd like to dress you up! Tell us your favorite t-shirt from our collection in the comments -- one person will win their pick!)

Shop the Story

Fashion Week is in full swing in New York City. That means a lot of people filling up the streets and restaurants dressed to the nines in the coolest outfits (read: all in black with stilettos).

  

  

So here’s our version of a new fall collection: whisper-soft t-shirts printed with “Let’s Brew!”, hoodies proclaiming our love for local food, and delicate jewelry in the shape of coffee beans, pistachios, and pears.

  

So go on, wear your good taste on your sleeve!! 

Tell us by Friday, September 12th at 5 PM: Which t-shirt from the Food Fashion collection would you wear most proudly? One lucky commenter will win their choice!

I like warm homemade bread slathered with fresh raw milk butter, ice cream in all seasons, the smell of garlic in olive oil, and sugar snap peas fresh off the vine.

Katarina K. September 10, 2014
I have a difficult time with prints on T-Shirt, since they often convey inane or embarrassing messages.

"Grow Your Own Food" is Excellent!

I never thought I would find a theme of "t-shirt prints" that I would like - although, since I'm a healthy foodie, who's passionate about farm to table, I should have known. On the other hand, I have not seen any t-shirts with food-related prints, much less any that I would ever wear.

Now I have :-) #LoveFood52
 
Arua P. September 10, 2014
I love to buy from the local market in my little town, so "Local tastes Better" is my fav!
 
Jess September 10, 2014
Black radish hoodie. Amazing.
 
Luca September 10, 2014
Black radish t-shirt.... pleaseeee!!!!
 
Sara C. September 10, 2014
I can't say I've fallen madly in love with a shirt before... that is, until I saw an Instagram of Food52's noodle shirt. I was scrolling through my feed and had to stop and go back because I had never seen a shirt as beautiful as the noodle shirt.

And I'm not just saying this -- as a half Japanese, half German girl raised primarily Japanese, I was raised on noodles. Somen and soba in the summers, nabeyaki udon and ramen in the winters. If I had to pick ONE type of food to live on for the rest of my life, it would undeniably be noodles.

I don't like to beg, but getting the noodle shirt would make me very, very happy.

 
Christina P. September 10, 2014
I meant beet, not beer! The thyme to turnip the beet shirt!
 
Christina P. September 10, 2014
First pick would be the beer shirt, cute and whitty. Second pick would be "local tastes better". Awesome tees!
 
Christina B. September 10, 2014
Black radish. It speaks to me.
 
Nicole A. September 10, 2014
soba&udon&somen&ramen. because of the poetic off-rhyme and the poetry of fatty, porky broth filled with chashu, spicy bean sprouts, kikurage, and noodles. piles and piles of noodles.
 
Shirley September 10, 2014
Time 2 turnip the beet. It's colour is so easy on the eyes and the phrase sounds so cheeky and fun - captures just the essence of home cooking!
