International Women’s Day is coming up (March 8th—mark your calendars) and for the occasion, Frank And Oak has partnered with cartoonist and graphic novelist Liana Finck, whose work appears in the New Yorker‘s illustrated advice column Dear Pepper, to create three limited edition t-shirt designs. The collection, Nice, features the artist’s signature sketches and sharp observations on the social realities that women have to navigate, from cat-calls to cliché archetypes. We’ll take one of each, please.
