NewUrbanMale.com Vintage Inspired Tees - Wonder Woman

Wonder Woman creator William Marston, explained how the idea of Wonder Woman came about in 1943 -

Picture from Cool Merchandise.com
"Frankly, Wonder Woman is psychologically a propaganda for the new type of woman who should, I believe, rule the world. There isn't enough love in the male organism to run this planet peacefully. Woman's body contains twice as many love generating organs and endocrine mechanisms as the male. What woman lacks is the dominance or self assertive power to put over and enforce her love desires. I have given Wonder Woman this dominant force but have kept her loving, tender, maternal and feminine in every other way. Her bracelets, with which she repels bullets and other murderous weapons, represent the Amazon Princess' submission to Aphrodite, Goddess of Love and Beauty. Her magic lasso, which compels anyone bound by it, to obey Wonder Woman and which was given to her by Aphrodite herself, represents woman's love charm and allure by which she compels man to do her bidding. "

And NewUrbanMale.com believes that Wonder Woman is the epitome of what every woman should be. NewUrbanMale.com appreciates the strength of a woman and understand sometimes its hard to live up to those expectations. Therefore NewUrbanMale.com believes that every woman needs a role model, an inspiration to help them through. And who better to inspire strength and beauty than Wonder Woman.


Let our Wonder Woman Junk Food tees be the pushing force, the inspiration of every strong woman out there.

See the range of Wonder Woman tees and the rest of the Junk Food collection at NewUrbanMale.com Citylink Mall and NewUrbanMale.com at the New Cathay.

British PM Tony Blair - The Leader in Fashion?


Fancy and colorful prints don't belong to the domain of women and their bikinis anymore. Newsweek reported that men are also making heads turn at the beach with boardshort prints that just scream for attention. Just take a look at these pair of boardshorts from Vileberequin (left) and Paul Smith (right).

And apparently, British Prime Minister Tony Blair took a pair of these snazzy boardshorts on holiday last year (looks like Tony Blair is way ahead of all the other fashionistas).

This proves one thing, that finally, more men are growing more fashionable.

Brand Spotlight: Salinas Runway Piece - Carmen Miranda


Salinas is great for the glamourous, perfect for the fashionable and suited for the chic. The premium Salinas 2006 collection available at NewUrbanMale.com includes this fabulous runway piece featuring the Brazilian legend - Carmen Miranda.

Who was Carmen Miranda?
Carmen Miranda was the epitome of all things Brazilian. The original Samba queen, she was the first person to introduce Samba to North Americans and is most fondly remembered for her elaborate and colorful "tutti-fruitti" hats.

Nicknamed the "Brazilian Bombshell", Carmen Miranda was multi-talented - she sang, she danced, she acted and was the hottest South American act ever known in the US between the 1930s-1950s. She acted alongside legends like Jerry Lewis and Elizabeth Taylor and was remembered for movies like Weekend in Havana and Copacabana.

She was so famous, her hands, feet and signature are on Hollywood's Hall of Fame. Then in 1998, the intersection of Hollywood Boulevard and Orange Drive was named Carmen Miranda Square and she even has an entire museum dedicated to her - the Carmen Miranda Museum in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

She was the symbol of culture and music in Brazil and is the chosen icon for this dazzling Salinas Runway Piece - exclusively available at NewUrbanMale.com.
