If you have a closer look at laFraise.com on Facebook everyday, you might know who Iclo is. We wanted to get to know him, a bit more :-)
Hi Iclo,
Please introduce yourself in a few sentences, where do you come from and what do you do?
First of all I wish all laFraise community a Happy New Year! My name is not Iclo, I just put two letters backwards. I come from Normandy, south of it to be precise, and I followed my girlfriend to Limoges for her new job. It’s been said that travelling keeps you young and I want to stay young as long as possible … I was responsible for a product’s research and development, but since I’ve moved and the job situation bad, I am not against the idea of another career direction.
How long have you known laFraise and how did you hear about it? What do you like about it?
It’s been 2 years by now. Was looking for a website with original shirts and especially kind of customised in some way. And after I found out some shops on the Internet, laFraise was the most obvious site that fit what I was looking for. I think the concept is just awesome, that people just can submit designs and vote. And then there is the limited edition, it’s great to own unique shirts but I like the hoodies as well.
What are your hobbies, passions and interests?
I’ve been playing handball for very long time and I got injured a lot because of it – but that’s the game.
Will I be original if I say that I go to the movies and love cultural nights out. I have a special passion for old cameras like the 6×6. And I’ll take this occasion to advertise here: I am currently looking for a Rolleifelx 4X4 Grey Baby, not expensive if possible, so if you guys hear about something, just let me know!
Among all of your laFraise shirts, what are your top 3?
- Number 3 is “North Pole” by Oorion
- Number 2 is “Milk Shakes” by Scroluna
- Number 1 is “Little Bird” by Cosmosnail
Who is your favourite designer at laFraise?
I love Graet’s work and his style is awesome!!! I loved his cooperation with Multicrass for “Nyctophobie” the result kicks ass….
What are your expectations this year?
As for laFraise, more cool designs and more discoveries on Facebook. As for me personally, I wish for a job where I have fun. And I have a personal challenge: win the photo of the month once and enjoy 2012 as we are supposed to say goodbye forever on December 21st.
What would you be if you were:
A flower: Well it would be a thistle (because I sting J
An animal: It would be a hyena because we don’t speak too much about this animal and it is an important one. And being friend with a hyena could be more important than being a friend with ….. real friends.
A celebrity (Dead or alive): Carlos Slim Helu (The richest man in the world) but not only for this bank account.
A colour: blue like other boys.
A music genre: ska, electro, metal and rap but old one like NTM.
A shirt colour: Red is a nice colour for a t-shirt.
A last word?
A bus …. to all get in together and drive to Berlin for a party at laFraise .-) Seriously, continue enjoying laFraise and I’ll continue showing off my beautiful t-shirts.
I want more pictures, more laFraise t-shirts, I want more of everything! Don’t be shy, dare to show off your laFraise shirt, with or without making a scene out of it!
Here’s one recipe for a fun Photo of the Month: a photo album on Facebook, a great community and great graphic t-shirt designs. Let’s get even more participants involved this year – the more the merrier!
Send your submission to jeux@lafraise.com and you’ll have the chance to win a €23 laFraise shirt!
All photos will be added to the Facebook photo album and the community will vote on their favourite picture(s). The photo with the most “likes” will be named the Photo of the Month and will get a free laFraise shirt. Easy, fun and totally worth it!
***
As you know, I never pass up the opportunity to break the ice with an example. I don’t expect such high quality scenes from you (or do I? … ;) but the idea is really to show that simple ideas can have great results!
Last week I did another photo shooting for laFraise, and this time I was immortalized by the French photographer Stéphane HERVÉ!
Stéphane HERVÉ is from la Bretagne in France and has lived in Paris, Los Angeles, New York and settled in Berlin last year. Over the next few weeks, you will be able to visit his website and see his portfolio “I see things” that will be a collection of all his best work (fashion, games, Nintendo, music …). If you want to get to know more in the meantime, visit him over at Facebook , or listen to his band DEAD SEXY INC, that will release their new album later this year …. If you guys love rock & roll!
Here are some cool videos from the previous album KAMIKAZE that I recommend if you love rock, electroclash and all similar rock styles :-)

Congrats to the winners and thanks to all participants!
MultiCrass has been a member of laFraise since way back in 2006 when our strawberry was still ripe! Get to know a long time member of the community and what they are up to when not voting on designs!
Hi Multi,
Please introduce yourself in a few sentences, where do you come from and what do you do?
Hi Nath, and hi everybody! It’s not that complicated, I live in North of France and I work in Purchasing for a company that does industrial piping.
How did you discover laFraise?
My colleague Antoine “the IT boy” helped me discover laFraise in 2006, and since then I can’t stop loving these shirts! I love the unique designs and the principle of voting.
What are your hobbies, passions and interests?
I have several passions like rock music, drawing, gardening and basketball, but I like creating things the most. In music I love to write and play with my ukulele, and as for drawing I can create ideas for a t-shirt, for instance.
Among all your laFraise shirts, what are your top 3?
Too hard to make a top 3 because I love them all but the ones I wear the most are:
“Barbarpapa monkey“, “Tourteau suisse“ and “Your time“.
Who is your favourite designer at laFraise?
I have several … Graetz is one of my favourites, I love his style and I love Vermine01 and I did a cooperation with him. Pandaluna has a very good style, very simple but very efficient too. And georgeslemercenaire as well … well just great people on laFraise.com!!!
What are your expectations this year?
Between laFraise and me: a dozen of options on shirts!
Between me and the world: Survive and help the others.
What would you be if you were?
A flower: an orange blossom
An animal: A snail
A celebrity (dead or alive): Han Solo (but with a light saber!!!)
A colour: Orange (My fave colour!!)
A music genre: Rock or Disco, well let’s say Disco-Rock!
A shirt colour: Orange (Fave colour forever)
A last word?
Well, ah, I would say: “Gouleyant“!
With the next t-shirts, there will certainly be some black in your closets:

This year we have decided to get to know you more, especially from the non designer side. Let’s start with Mylène our strawberry of the year 2011 , who is she, what does she like about our t-shirt?
Hi Mylène,
Introduce yourself in a few sentences, where do you come from and what do you do?
I am working on a masters in Human Resources in Lyon. I come from a small village between the Mountains in Savoie and the plains of Ain.
How long have you known laFraise and how did you hear about it? What do you like about it?
I think I have known laFraise for about 5 years and I do not remember how I found out about it. Maybe when I was looking for shops with limited edition shirts – and that is what I like at laFraise. I hate standing across from someone with the same look, and I worship t-shirts with messages.
What are your hobbies, passions and interests?
I took criminology courses from January to July last year, it had nothing to do with Human Resources but with HR it is about paying the bills and my interest in criminology is more of a passion. I am really interested in criminal affairs and news items. For a while I practiced shooting but I also love music and cinema.
Among all your laFraise shirts, what are your top 3?
“Spot 7 differences” at first of course. This one made me win twice for the photo of the month!!!! “Lighting bird” makes me dream and “le penseur” with the Rubik’s Cube … was totally made for me!
Who is your favourite designer at laFraise?
I love what Massala.K does (and thanks to you I now have an autograph of his, I’m happy!)
What are your expectations this year?
I’m calling for help! There was a submission with a goldfish and with some incoherences in the design and a friend of mine and I tried to explain to the designer what went wrong on this design. There are also a lot of fish designs at the moment and maybe the designer got scared but I wish this design would be submitted again, so if you are reading and recognize yourself, please I want it… This is an SOS! I expect more nice shirt designs from you, currently I have been less interested in shirts because I do not like the colour of the shirt or I do not like the design and I must say that I hate the colour green.
What would you be if you were:
A flower: A carnivorous plant. I am nice but do not mess with me!
An animal: A chameleon because I know how to adapt myself.
A celebrity (Dead or alive): Beethoven: just for the pride of having written Moonlight Sonata which is my favourite classical piece.
A colour: Blue
A music genre: Rock – Need some movement -
A shirt colour: Blue
A last word?
A kiss to all of you who made me as the strawberry of the year by voting with me! Love you guys!
