Wannabe Society is not about fashion, it is about who you want to be. It is just you and the chosen word. No design. Pure you. Black on white or white on black. Sounds nice, ha?
In fact it goes like this: you go on wannabesociety.com, you select the type of t-shirt, its non-color (black or white) and who you wannabe. Tuff question, isn't it? Well, you have to think hard. If you have no clue, you can choose from the 672 words available in Word Bank. If you still can't find your inner self there, you can suggest your own. Each member can suggest a word, which is added to the bank after approval.
But choosing the word is not that random, guys. When we know what we want, we are already half the way towards reaching it. "Wishing to be something is more than just being it", says Wannabe Society.
The project was established in 2005, 100% Slovenian-Ljubljana, as a result of an experiment in invisible design. Igor Arih, the man with the idea: "I have never believed that people were sheep with no imagination that needed everything to be drawn nicely so that they could imagine the contents." So, this is why at the very beginning you may think the t-shirts are boring, weired and somehow unfinished. That's what makes it a wannabe t-shirt!
But you know, be careful what you wish for, it might come true! "Be aware of the power of the message" is my favorite from all the funny 10 commandments. You thought buying a t-shirt with a message on is that easy?!??!
I like the project very much as it creates consumerism with spiritual meaning. It is aspirational and inspirational. I also believe in the power of the subconscious but it takes a lot of discipline and work to concentrate your wishes in just one word. Interesting enough if you take it seriously as they suggest. What do you wannabe today?
