Key fashion trends of the season: Men's T-shirts

At D&G they always do a very nice line in retro print T-shirts, which is easier said than done. Logo T-shirts can be a disaster waiting to happen and generally, particularly in the case of slogans, best avoided. Let us guide you through this sartorial minefield with our pick of the best retro styles

The skull print is the granddaddy of T-shirt prints. We like this one because it doesn't try too hard. Comme des Garcons has just shown a collection full of skulls for S/S11, so this puts you ahead of the game

OK, we know, we are breaking our own 'no slogans' rule, BUT we had forgotten about the genius that is Roy from The IT Crowd and his penchant for slogan T-shirts. Roy would love this and that is enough for us - well that and perhaps being trapped in the basement with Roy and Moss
