Linen for Lenin

Today is Vladimir Lenin's birthday, so I thought I would give you a little information about this famous Russian Marxist revolutionary. Vlad was the creator and leader of the Soviet Communist Party, helped instigate the October 1917 Russian Revolution, and was founder of the USSR. In his philosophy, the ideal state would be a dictatorship of the proletariat (or the industrial working class). His most famous quote was "A lie told often enough becomes the truth." He's a real optimist.


In honor of Vlad's birthday, I present Linen for Lenin, a mix of a few of my favorite linen pieces.

    What are these pieces?

    I think this is excellent. I'm glad you're doing it. I've always thought you have the most wonderfully glamorous-but-accessible style. However, I think the font of the articles could be larger or bolder in order to be easier to read.

    Now what would Lenin say about your encouragement of the purchase of commodities within the capitalist free market, hmmmm? Were these linens produced by exploited workers, hmmmm?
