GREETINGS FROM ASTEROID CITY POSTCARD T-SHIRT

A cult movie t-shirt available in black or white cotton.

Aliens. Artifice. Atomic anxiety.
The Greetings From Asteroid City Postcard T-Shirt is a stylized salute to Wes Anderson’s immaculately symmetrical and delightfully strange love letter to cosmic wonder, parental grief, and mid-century Americana: Asteroid City.

Set in a fictional desert town circa 1955 — population: weirdos, widows, and wandering geniuses — Asteroid City follows a group of precocious children, melancholic adults, and visiting aliens as they converge during a Junior Stargazer convention. What unfolds is part stageplay, part story-within-a-story, and all unmistakably Anderson: dryly comic, visually meticulous, and tinged with existential despair wrapped in pastel postcards.

“You can’t wake up if you don’t fall asleep.” — Asteroid City

This t-shirt captures the aesthetic and absurdity of the film with a retro postcard-style graphic that reads “Greetings From Asteroid City” — the perfect wearable homage to a place that doesn’t exist but somehow feels like a memory. With its mix of space-age optimism and emotional gravity, this design speaks to dreamers, film buffs, and anyone who’s ever stared into the desert sky and wondered what’s really out there… or in here.

Perfect for Anderson collectors, deadpan comedy lovers, and folks who dress in color palettes curated by an art department.

Greetings from the edge of reality — wish you were weird.
