Penguinmerch – The Rainbow knight it’s not who I am underneath but what I do that defines me shirt

Buy this shirt: https://penguinmerch.com/tee/the-rainbow-knight-its-not-who-i-am-underneath-but-what-i-do-that-defines-me-shirt/ Just what is it about the The Rainbow knight it’s not who I am underneath but what I do that defines me shirt and I love this French-girl fringe that is so youthful? As my hairdresser Joel Goncalves snips cheerfully away at my hair, bundles of it accumulating in my lap, I can’t help but marvel at how the careful placement of wispy bits, sharp bits and blunt bits can make eyes look a little wider, lips look a little fuller, and freckles pop more… foxily. To clarify, I’m talking about the Margot Robbie British Vogue cover that inspired me to book in for the chop in the first place, and not my own reflection in the mirror. And it’s that sense of freedom—perhaps needed more than ever following lockdown after lockdown —rather than any desire to knock actual years off, that is seeing more of us in our fifties request one.

But while the The Rainbow knight it’s not who I am underneath but what I do that defines me shirt and I love this 31-year-old actor totally rocks the look (created by hairstylist Bryce Scarlett), it’s the spirit of this particular type of fringe that makes it so wearable at any age—including mine. Long summer evenings, barefoot in the park, oversized Celine shades… the French-girl fringe is the antithesis of those power fringes that rule the boardroom, their geometrical perfection creating a businesslike air that allows the wearer to channel their inner Mary Portas. “It’s Françoise Hardy, Brigitte Bardot,” says Goncalves of the Gallic alternative. “Always easy to wear, always iconic, and it’s grown in popularity over time.” At least if my casual survey of those gracing Goncalves’s chair is anything to go by. “Two yesterday and another later today,” he says.
