Celebritee Special

We sent four of the coolest locals we know to The T-Shirt Deli (1739 N. Damen Ave.) in Bucktown. Their mission: to be designer for a day  

(1) Maria Pinto, fashion designer
Inspiration: "While I try not to be too involved in politics, there is a feeling of positive change in the air, and I want to support and embrace that in any way I can."

(2) Stephanie Izard, Top Chef contestant
Inspiration: "My inspiration is a combination of silly life goals to hug a monkey and milk a cow, along with my huge love of bacon and all pork products."

(3) Kara Mann, interior designer
Inspiration: "There’s nothing I love more than my dog, Chopper."

(4) James Wisniewski, Chicago Blackhawks (#43, defense)
Inspiration: "I thought it would be cool to play designer. Wizware could be my collection."

Chicago will hold a drawing to give away these custom T-shirts to lucky readers. Click here to enter before July 10. No purchase necessary. Must be 18 and a resident of Illinois to participate.
