Designs
Mainstream isn’t really our thing. Our designs are sometimes odd, often nonsense, usually ironic, cheeky-clever, or socially critical – even subversive. Or just funny. (At least, we think so.) Because: “Life is far too important a thing ever to talk seriously about it.” (Oscar Wilde)
Parasitic
Yes, you could say our iron-ons cling to fabrics like ideological ticks, feeding off them – even rewriting their stories. Mass-market fashion becomes the clueless host. Your old t-shirt? A new host body! No brand is sacred (unless the fabric says “no heat”), and we don’t ask for permission. You might even say: Photoshoplifting isn’t decoration – it’s infiltration.
Sustainable
Nope, our iron-ons aren’t biodegradable, and no, they’re not made from ground apple seeds. But we do believe there’s something deeply sustainable about giving old clothes a second life – and loving them again instead of tossing them out and buying new ones. So yeah, with a clear conscience we say: Pimp your old clothes – it’s environmentally friendly!
Collaborations
What’s better than working with people you respect and who share your values? Sure – holidays, sex, drugs & rock’n’roll, maybe not working at all. Could be. But that’s not the point (and the question was rhetorical anyway). Point is: we’re into collabs – with emerging, established, and positive-minded creatives. If that’s you, drop us a line.
How it works
Our iron-ons are suitable for almost all iron-friendly materials, especially cotton, cotton blends, denim, leather, linen, etc. Before applying to polyester or technical fabrics, always perform a print and wash test to check for cold or dye sublimation issues. *** 1. Place the Photoshoplifting transfer on your garment. *** 2. Cover it with baking paper or a thin cloth. *** 3. Press it with a heat press at 140°C for 15 seconds. Or: Use a regular household iron and press down firmly for 15 seconds. *** 4. Let it cool down completely. *** 5. Carefully peel off the protective film. *** 6. Post-pressing: A second press for 5 seconds is recommended. Again – baking paper! ***

Your old t-shirt? A new host body!
PHOTOSHOPLIFTING questions conventional logics of production and authorship in textile design by re-coding existing garments through parasitic strategies.
