About this deal

While Matlock stated in an interview with Good Morning Britain: "I've nothing personal against the queen, lots of people love and respect her, but I do think she's a bit of a sop to what's going on". Lydon has voiced his disapproval over the re-release and the campaign, saying in a statement: "I would like to very strongly distance myself from the recent stories and campaign to push 'God Save the Queen' for the number one spot. Long before shirts, there were sashes: Throughout the 19th century, partisans of various political parties swore allegiance with embroidered cross-body ribbons. In 2012, it was announced that the single would be re-released on 28 May 2012, coinciding with the 35th anniversary of the original release and the Queen's Diamond Jubilee.

As it turns out, one of the earliest examples of message-wearing in recorded history concerned the feet: In the 1760s, British supporters of John Wilkes supposedly carved the number 45—associated with a famous essay by that parliamentarian—into the soles of their shoes, so that they could imprint the number in London’s muddy alleys.

On one occasion Vivienne Westwood was photographed wearing it for the “Punk Jubilee” during the summer of 1977. Since it did not ascribe to the ideal silhouette of the time period, no particular undergarments had to be worn under this t-shirt.

Sir Lenny Henry and Dame Maggie Smith represent “film and TV” whilst, in a nod to the Commonwealth, English-Australian singer and charity campaigner Dame Olivia Newton John takes one of three “music” slots. Whether you want a sarcastic t-shirt or a geeky t-shirt to embrace your inner nerd, CafePress has the tee you're looking for. The lyrics to the song “God Save the Queen” by the Sex Pistols, surround this image along with the band’s logo.

A large part of the Punk look were t-shirts emblazoned with provocative and controversial images (Reddy).

This shirt is emblematic of their designs, particularly of their long-standing involvement in both music and clothing design. There are metal rings sewn to the outer sleeve seam at the shoulder and small metal clasps dangle at the cuffs. At the evening of the same day, BBC Two's Newsnight programme ended its nightly broadcast with host of that night Kirsty Wark saying that they were "incredibly happy to oblige" Rosindell's request, and then played a clip of the Sex Pistols' similarly named song, much to Rosindell's discontent. A range of t-shirts sold by independent artists featuring a huge variety of original designs in sizes XS-5XL; availability depending on style. would issue a garment that declares, in the ominous, heart-breaking words of the Pistols’s song: “We’re the flowers in the dustbin.Upon its release, the song was banned from both the BBC and radio stations regulated by the Independent Broadcasting Authority with Radio 2 controller Charles McLelland saying the song was "in gross bad taste". It was reimagined with a safety pin emblazoned across the queen’s mouth and “God Save the Queen,”“Sex Pistols” and “She Ain’t No Human Being” surrounding her face in graphic text.

The shape of the shirt is boxy, hanging from the shoulders as opposed to being anchored at a different point, such as the waist. In the summer of 1977, various royal pageants and celebrations were set to take place to commemorate this occasion. The cover art gives further reference to the Sex Pistols by using the same cut-out words to form the title as the Sex Pistols' single cover.So far, its best sellers are the bondage trousers… and the “God Save the Queen” t-shirt, with a photo of her majesty with a safety pin through her nose and mouth. he “God Save the Queen” T-shirt was mentioned in a 1977 Women’s Wear Daily ( WWD) article about designer Zandra Rhodes’ interpretation of Punk in her own designs.
