it's pretty lame, but the most ridiculous part about it is that is costs over $100. if you want a t-shirt with an illustration of cory on it (by moi) you can get it for about $20 email rachel vajda at rachelvajda@thefashiongallery.biz

i've been an avid reader since the beginning, but i really can't stand the current tone of this site.

what does everybody else think?

I don't understand the Cory Kennedy fame. She's not attractive in any way and always looks a bit dirty/stoned.

ugh...i don't understand why these stupid people(cory and paris) keep invading the fashion world...a pure example of how the media and internet have given stupid people celebrity status for doing nothing

Oh Cory Kennedy. I think Cory definitely has interesting style and I like to see the outfits she comes up with but I don't understand the extent to which she has taken this "celebrity" thing and it completely lessens her original appeal I mean a $100 t-shirt with her picture on it....

Lets be honest... Cory Kennedy is the indie Paris Hilton.
Can't stand either of them.

back to the actual shirt...

i don't get it either... and who would buy this!? only hipsters care about cory kennedy, but it's pretty much hipster suicide to plaster her face on your shirt!!! think again ksubi.

ya, i like this site, but there seems to be some kinda wierd sycophantic tone being set with the love for models (why?) and ppl like cory kennedy. i mean, worship for the designers is granted, but models? they don't really influence anything, and they get paid for propogating an unatainable aesthetic/body figure...i'm not sure why they are paid so much attention here. i mean, i get it, but i think it makes more sense to adore the fashion houses if anything because they are the ones who set the trends and are the essence of fashion...i hope this doesn't come off mean and femi-nazi-ish, but that's just what i think. but, i love the site anyways. keep the filler coming!

I'm so over that whole scene and how Nylon worships her and all those kids who want to be on cobra snake and last nights party and such. It's so stupid. It's all "I'm so different and cool" when really they're all exactly alike.

But I do disgree with guest @ 2:57...I love love love models. I find them interesting and cool and such. But I don't think of cory as a model. She's a myspace slut who got lucky.

I think models are extremely relevant to fashion, and therefore this site.

it's similar to how actors are relevant to the film industry.

in terms of branding models are instrumental to certain brands- i.e. sasha is right for prada where as agyness wouldn't be. maodels simply continue a brands aesthetic.

i feel the model posts are one of the most interesting parts of this blogs as many other fashion sites don't really focus on them.

I am waiting for this hipster fad to be over, once they realize everyone looks the same they will stop...i hope. Isn't the whole point of dressing like a hipster to be different?? Cory should actually go to high school and stop partying.

Oh and the shirt, I seriously don't get it and its a huge waste of money.

$100 for that?! What a waste!! Cory Kennedy is alright, but this whole thing has gone waaayy too far. I can't stand how every teenage hipster girl emulates her.

isnt she like, 18 now? doesnt that mean she was born in 1990? haha. it makes no sense, just like her!

I agree with: "it's really ironic that cory thinks she is any different from paris hilton."

The $100 price tag is on par with the price of all Ksubi shirts. Although I'm not saying its justified.

And the 1990 thing, I guess is a reference to her birth year? Or maybe just a nod to the 1990s fads coming back (they are coming back, didn't you hear?).

Well, models may be very relevant to fashion, and fashion to models, but sure that only goes to show how self-perpetuating, elitist and irrelevant to most people's lives this abominable industry is. I'm glad that someone has finally mentioned this embarrassing sycophantic attitude to models here. What's there to worship? Being thin? pretty? Able to look good in clothes? Barely pubescent? Is this REALLY worthy of this adulation? Why am I here? Believe me I wish I knew - it's the me that is constantly concerned I'm not good enough, thin enough or pretty enough that engages with the fashion world and its' unending production of desire and inadequacy. It's sometimes a relief to realise that it is upheld by such an inane and unaware community of people!

I'm so over the whole "hipster" phase. Every single one I see on my college campus thinks they are so shabby/chic and individual, yet they are all the SAME. Wake up people!

the high school kids who think they are so cool and hipster will buy it i guess. if i saw someone in the city wearing this shirt, i will just laugh. so hard. inside.

and the models even inspire the designers. they are relevant.

I guess I wouldn't mind the hipster thing or the Corey Kennedy thing if for one second I felt like any of these cooler-than-thou kids actually understood the history of the stuff they wear.

Everyone buys their style now-- a true hipster would be at a thriftstore, not buying some stupid crap with Paris Hilton on it.

I LOVE YOU.

I completely agree. Society is so decadent,models are idolized for the way they dress, and also because "normal" people want to be as thin as them, which I find pathetic and lame. Oh, fashion world, you frivolous place!

This shirt is completely ridiculous.

I think cory kennedy is an idiot, the only other shirts i've seen from tsubi ( i'm not changing it to ksubi since i've been buying their stuff from the beggining) are of michael jackson and britney spears. Both shirts poking fun of them. So if she "collaborated" with them on this, did tsubi pull the wool over her eyes or do people in austrlia really think she is that famous. NOONE besides wannabe hipsters know her. Except for people that make fun of her on fashion blogs.

She is just a sad little girl that doesn't know how to apply makeup correctly and dresses as "individually" as her little 17 yr old self can dress. Which by class and fashion standards is horrific.

cory kennedy IS the indie paris hilton. cobrasnake took pictures of cory with the intention of making her a celebrity a la paris, famous for doing nothing.

I think Corey Kennedy the PHENOMENON is really incredible and noteworthy and sociologically meaty.

My guess is that CK the GIRL is a good kid whose images always ring kinda true, even when she mugs for the camera or whatever.

And my opinion re: CK the TEE is that I don't get it either, and I'm suspicious that there's actually anything TO get.

The thing about those who are 'subversive' and cool is that when they become famous like this,they lose some of that cachet. That's just my opinion.

And isn't Paris kinda done now? Please?

I have no problem with models, but I'd prefer to read about fashion on a fashion site. Not saying the models shouldn't be here at all but the amount of breathless posts about them seems excessive.

Cory's a cute girl, I guess, but I thought she was very 2006. Give us Alexa Chung.

Of course it is, that's the kind of shit hipsters do. Hipsters like Cory Kennedy. (:
