"Empire Records" Set of 3 Background Character T-Shirts (Female #1)

Description

A set of three background character T-shirts and wardrobe pieces from Empire Records, this grouping perfectly captures the laid-back, eclectic 1990s fashion aesthetic that defined the film’s look and continues to resonate with collectors. Featuring layered textures, bold patterns, and casual silhouettes, these pieces reflect the authentic style worn by female background characters throughout the cult classic.

The first piece is a long-sleeve green and brown tie-dyed shirt labeled one size fits all. The upper back features a black scroll-shaped graphic with text reading “HARD [star shape] TAIL.” A white interior tag at the collar reads “Authentic Original / HARD [red star] TAIL / FOREVER / SINCE THE BEGINNING / ONE SIZE FITS ALL,” with handwritten “E” visible on the tag. Product information and care instructions are printed on the reverse.

The second piece is a white long-sleeve shirt decorated with blue imagery of teapots, plates, cups and saucers, and milk jugs. The interior tag reads “free people” and includes an illustrated tree with leaves below the brand name.

The third piece is a long-sleeve light blue knit cardigan sweater featuring large opal-like buttons running down the front of the lapel. An interior leather tag with zig-zag edging is attached at the neckline and appears to include handwritten markings that are not clearly legible. A smaller size tag attached to the leather label displays the letter “M,” indicating a size medium.

Together, this set offers a nostalgic snapshot of 1990s casual fashion and serves as an appealing collection for Empire Records fans, costume collectors, and enthusiasts of iconic movie wardrobe from the era.
