For some, clowns are neither funny nor cute, and the Givenchy Pierrot T-Shirt proves just that. The French high-fashion label has unveiled its new collection of graphic tees featuring clowns that almost make Ronald McDonald look less creepy for those with coulrophobia.
The Givenchy Pierrot t-shirt is a part of the company's Spring/Summer 2011 release and is available now at Restir. See more images of the tee above.
