^ Gosh I wonder how they get round that legally...?!

I guess all it needs is the photographer to sell the rights, but I can't see P being too happy at them making $$$ from his likeness presumably without permission?!

They done a great one last year with a lightly distorted b&w photo from the "Gold" era. It was on a girls sleeveless top much like the one the OP has posted.

Quite smart.

Meh personally I've seen much better ones on eBay and even at Hot Topic. Actually it's not even that hard to make your own wink

Wear what you want, you only live once. If people do not like let them deal with it, not your problem. Just rock it and smile smile it's your happiness that counts.
