Late last year, I visited Outlier. Warren Lotas Houston Space Exploration 2023 Shirt designer Willie Norris at her Brooklyn studio. After she walked me through her collection, she told me she had something cool to show me. Like any decent reporter—and curious person—I was more than down to check it out. Turns out Norris had partnered with the artist Zak Krevitt to interpret the images for her spring 2023 lookbook through the lens of AI—yes, artificial intelligence. Krevitt turned Norris’s models into fantastical otherworldly beings: Aliens walking down a runway in menswear of fantastical proportions—it was as if a Vogue Runway lookbook and a surrealist painting were put in a blender.

A few weeks later,. Warren Lotas Houston Space Exploration 2023 Shirt I connected with Krevitt on Instagram. Norris had produced blankets of these AI illustrations, and as I shared one online Krevitt popped up in my DMs to claim his artwork—as he should! We started chatting. Like many, I had seen all the controversy about AI online, but was curious about how it worked. Krevitt explained many things I’m unable to eloquently spell out here: Codes, custom AI models, image databases, the math in data science. What I took from our conversation is that AI, as scary as it sounds—everything from Scarlett Johansson in Her to Wall-E to I, Robot come to mind—is an opportunity to process images and data. It’s here whether we like it or not, so why not try to understand it

Great quality, but order a size up.
After an inspection of the clothing they appear to be made quite well. There were no openings in the seems, no loose/unraveling threads, no tears, or stains.
Unfortunately, even with measuring myself before ordering, they did not fit. I ordered medium, in accordance to their sizing chart, but it felt much too tight. Almost like it was trying to be a muscle shirt. So, order a size bigger and you should be good there.
Finally, I learned I don’t like “heavy cotton.” A lot of other reviewers said the fabric was soft. To me it was indeed heavy, too heavy, and was more roughly-textured that I expected. Not what I call soft.
I liked the quality of the construction though, and these issues ultimately shouldn’t count against the product itself. Size chart just needs some adjustment, and the fabric issues are just my own preferences.
