5 Places to Shop in Athens with Local Designer IT'S A SHIRT
Born and raised in Athens, Christina founded IT'S A SHIRT in 2020 following her art and textile studies. She describes her project as "not a clothing brand, but a lifestyle which concentrates on conscious customers and human beings you want to be totally aware of what they wear".
Growing up close to the port in Piraeus, Christina has spent a lot of her time strolling around neighbourhoods and discovering hidden spots and stores around the city. With a rich cultural lens of Athens, she gives us the lowdown on where to find the best vintage bits and where some of Athen's most unique stores are.
