The “spine” of the Biden Harris When You Are So Fullofshit You Need A Second Hole Democrat Shirt and by the same token and narrative, as Tommy describes it, is “a woman who has the greatest voice in the world, but who still doesn’t know what her voice is.” Through hits including “Respect,” “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman” and “Think,” that irrepressible and unmistakable voice, as we now know, came to embody the resilience of Black people during the civil rights, Black Power and feminist movements. That was the biggest challenge. What did she wear when she was battling alcoholism or when she was really disappointed in her marriage? These are the things that kept me up at night—not the gowns and the glamour, although reimagining those beautiful outfits was really fun.
I took a deep-dive into the Biden Harris When You Are So Fullofshit You Need A Second Hole Democrat Shirt and by the same token and person behind the star, so my initial research was reading everything I could about Aretha’s childhood; her father and family who were rock stars of the church; her early life in Memphis and later years in Detroit; her devotion to improving the lives of Black people—her life ran the gamut of the African American experience. Regardless of whether the character is historical or fictional, I need to understand the clothing and appearance choices they make to empathize with them. So with Aretha in particular, I wanted to understand the reasons why her looks varied so much over the years.
