The Shameless Fund, founded by out actor Jonathan Bailey, is joining forces with Jonathan Anderson’s Loewe to take a stand against the rising tide of anti-LGBTQ+ laws worldwide. Their recent collaboration on the “Drink your Milk” t-shirt isn’t just about fashion — it’s a bold (and sexy) statement in support of LGBTQ+ rights.
The t-shirt design is in no way random! It’s a direct reference to Bailey’s recent hit Showtime series Fellow Travelers. Inspired by a steamy scene in the show in which Matt Bomer’s character Hawk tells Bailey’s character Tim to “shut up and drink your milk.”
When discussing the design choice in an interview withVogue, Bailey said, “That is a line in Fellow Travelers, immaculately and robustly performed by Matt Bomer in a way that I think will send shudders through many people in the best possible way.” The actor continued, saying, “I wanted his performance to be immortalized, and I wanted my character’s reaction to it to be immortalized as well. I think this T-shirt does just that.”
Jonathan Bailey’s collaboration with Loewe, benefitting The Shameless Fund, will be available in select Loewe stores and online beginning June 27.
