What is Daydreamer?
Daydreamer is a Los Angeles-based clothing brand that specializes in authentic graphic t-shirts meant for equally authentic people. Founded by Laura Glover, who made the pilgrimage to LA from Chicago to begin her dream, Daydreamer was eventually born out of her love of music and has been thriving ever since.
Whether you’re a fan of Hall and Oats, The Beetles, or whether you appreciate the nostalgia that comes from the feeling of an old t-shirt you got in the middle of Texas on that one road trip you took ten years ago, there’s a little something at Daydreamer to bring out your adventurous side.
What is Daydreamer’s Philosophy?
Authenticity
Made for authentic people everywhere and imbued with that iconic musical spirit of the ages, each Daydreamer t-shirt is meant to bring out your serendipitous side. The Daydreamer community is one that encourages the “yes” mentality that brings about new experiences and new ideas.
Emotion
Bringing to life the iconic memory of that 80’s concert you went to when you were young, or the feeling you get when listening to The Beach Boys while driving with the top down, every Daydreamer tee you purchase is imbued with a myriad of emotions.
Whether you're a massive Nirvana fan and mourn the loss of Kurt Cobain, whether you dream of the good old days of Elvis Presley, or if you desperately want to relive that time in middle school when your friends dragged you to a Bruce Springsteen concert, you’re bound to feel something when you put on one of Daydreamer’s beautifully designed graphics tees.
Nostalgia
As if it weren’t already clear, Daydreamer seeks to bring out your nostalgic side. Whether you were actually around to see Freddie Mercury play live, or if you grew up listening to music your parents loved back in the day, you’re sure to feel a hint of nostalgia when putting on a Daydreamer tee.
Even the non-rocker band t-shirts offer something special by way of nostalgia, be it the iconic cherry tee or a groovy Sonny and Cher tee that screams “I love the 70’s!” even though you were born in 1996. Daydreamer doesn’t discriminate when it comes to things like that. As far as they’re concerned, it’s come one, come all. So, if nostalgia’s what you’re looking for, you’ve come to the right place!
Positivity
Because Daydreamer thrives on creating t-shirts that inspire people to laugh, to relive old memories, and to make new ones, they use every message contained within each t-shirt to inspire positivity and communication between themselves, their customers and the entire world! Now, that’s a boost of happiness we could all use, amen?
What is Daydreamers Fashion Style?
So, besides creating epic designs that are meant to bring out your inner rock god (or goddess), what makes Daydreamer tees so special? Here’s what they’re all about…
Creating That Lived-In Feel
Every Daydreamer t-shirt is custom knit and sent through a proprietary wash to give them a soft, comfortable, lived-in feel that also keeps it from shrinking. The result is a t-shirt that can withstand years of wear without actually wearing out.
In addition, Daydreamer experts test each t-shirt style on a variety of body types to ensure the best and most comfortable fit, no matter the wearer.
Each of these processes takes a bit of extra time and love, but the end result is worth the effort. You won’t find a better quality t-shirt anywhere else!
A Basis of Creativity
Daydreamer works with the management of each musical artist to create authentic designs that are 100% unique while also paying homage to the artists themselves. To achieve this goal, the team at Daydreamer scours flea markets, estate sales, websites and more to find band memorabilia and other sources of inspiration that will ultimately go into the one-of-a-kind designs you’ll see printed on their t-shirts.
Meticulously drawn by their digital artists, aged in just the right way to maintain that lived-in look and feel, and ultimately printed using high-tech printing presses for maximum wearability, every piece is a work of art that will stand the test of time.
Committed to Sustainability and Quality
From start to finish, every Daydreamer product is designed, cut and sewn in L.A. with the help of Daydreamer’s many trusted vendors, who they like to call their neighbors! In addition, every piece is cut to order, minimizing waste and maximizing quality.
Lastly, every Daydreamer t-shirt is sent through a multi-step approval process to ensure that the beautiful pieces you purchase are absolutely perfect before they ever reach your hands. The result is a trusted cut and fit that you can rely on time and time again.
