Charli XCX's brat merchandise slammed by fans as singer charges £35 for t-shirts and £50 for a towel Charli XCX started a whole new movement upon the release of her new album READ MORE: Charity shop customers slam 'ridiculous' prices for second-hand clothes By Gina Kalsi and Alanah Khosla For Mailonline Published: 08:08, 18 July 2024 | Updated: 08:18, 18 July 2024 e-mail View comments Fans of Charli XCX have hit out at the singer for charging £35 for black and white t-shirts branded with the logo from her new album. The 31-year-old, from Essex, has received critical acclaim for her sixth album brat, which has even started a whole new movement , with her lyrics inspiring Gen Z to ditch the once-fashionable 'clean girl' for grungy style and eccentric behaviour. Charli XCX described the brat aesthetic to the BBC as: 'Trashy.
Just like a pack of cigs and, like, a Bic lighter. And, like, a strappy white top. With no bra.
That's, like, kind of all you need.' The accompanying merchandise for the new album includes t-shirts, water bottles and keyrings - but fans are dismayed at the price of the collection which is anything but grunge. In recognition of brat's cultural significance, Charli XCX (pictured) released baby t-shirts emblazoned with the word 'brat' as official merchandise - but fans dubbed it too expensive The artist is selling simple black, white and neon green baby t-shirts simply with the word 'brat' on them for £35, while a simple green towel costs £50.
The 360 sing.
