A white cotton T-shirt forms the basis of every woman’s wardrobe.
Lucie Kalousová (Patrick Poppet) a Tereza Franc (Fine
Labels) have decided to join forces again and create a mini collection of t-shirts of the highest quality with designer prints with champagne and handbag motifs. They also invited fresh people to work on the graphics
student of the prestigious art school Central Saint Martins
in London Adela Žižková.
A white t-shirt is a classic that will never go out of style. It can be worn with jeans and sneakers in a sporty style, as well as with pumps and a skirt complemented by an elegant jacket. In addition, when it is made of the highest quality organic cotton and features a tasteful feminine print, it can be worn on almost any occasion. However, Lucia and Tereza lacked such a shirt.
“We wanted the motifs to describe us, what we do and what we really enjoy, so we came up with prints on the theme of Champagne and handbags,” explains Lucie Kalousová, owner and designer of the Patrick Poppet brandunder which are handbags made of premium leather and paintings with champagne bottles.
A classic with a certificate
- T-shirts are Oekotex certified and GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard), which is the strictest certification for textiles made from organic fibers.
- It guarantees that the cotton is grown without GMOs and chemicals such as artificial fertilizers, pesticides and insecticides.
- It ensures not only the ecological purity of production, but also of the final product, thus protecting the environment, the health of people employed in production and, last but not least, the wearers of organic textiles.
- This cotton is very soft and breathable and therefore comfortable to wear.
Mini collection
In the mini collection you will find a t-shirt with the red inscription “CHMPGN & HNDBGS, This is what I love”, a collage in soft pastel colors “On a Champagne diet” and a graphic with the inscription “Me, Myself & I”, created by the talented Adéla Žižková.

The authors of the t-shirts wanted to create purely feminine motifs that describe their professional focus and passion in one. “Lucia and I started working together already in the spring, when she approached me to become the face of her brand. The t-shirt collection is our next venture and only confirms our successful cooperation.” he says Teresa Franc1st Czech Madame Cognac & Champagne, co-owner of Fine Labels boutique with fine drinks and the only holder of the Cognac Educator certificate in Central Europe. “In order for the story to be complete and given a face, we decided to put ourselves in front of the camera lens. Our trio was completed by our friend and entrepreneur Agi Archer. We are all different, which is how we wanted to demonstrate that our t-shirts will suit every woman.”
