After pouring over the t-shirt entries, it’s easy to see there is a lot of great talent in STL. The LouFest T-Shirt Design Committee had a tough decision, but we managed to come up with our 5 favorite entries.
Now, for your voting pleasure, the top 5 entries (in no particular order, click to enlarge):
Option 1 - Ed Trover
Option 2 - Kadie Foppiano
Option 3 - Monica Duwel
Option 4 - STL-Style.com
Option 5 - Brittni Zotos
I’m really torn, to be honest. I want to choose 4 or 5. And I don’t know how I feel about 3 looking a lot like a Bonnaroo design. Also, I’m torn between choosing a design that more closely identifies LouFest to either music or St. Louis…

Wow.. Option 2 is really good! I like them all, but 2 is great!
I really liked option 2 — But what the hell is with the balloon? Echos LOLLA. not cool.
Great design!
Way to go, Jeff & Randy! More STL Style, yeah!!!
Vote for 2!
Saint Louis has a ton of great designers, I am surprised to see not so great t-shirt designs in the selection. These competitions are always better when all the work is posted and it doesn’t have to run through a committee first.
STL STyLe is great!
number two is AWESOME!!!!!
I thought Kadie was the most interesting art work…Its delightful!! NOt spooky or common. Again Kadie shows her talent in creating art for all ages in one print!! Very hard to do and NICE!!
I like that #1 is the Missouri state seal. Very cool. Not to be mean, but where are the hands & face on #3.
#2 totally rocks!!
#2 or #4. hmm, decisions. love the king louis statue w/guitar! balloons are great symbols of forest park.
Option 2 is the best. Nice designs by all though.
The balloons are for the balloon race and balloon Glow that happens in Forest Park every year.

Ed’s is definitely the best. Look at the rest of them. I could see everyone enjoying his the most.
#2 all the way. Love it!
I like the Stl Style and the nod to King Louie (statue in from of the art museum). I like #1 for mentioning the line-up…and I like #2 for the nod to the balloon race that takes place at center field…but yeah, I have to give the solid to #4 (Stl Style)
Number 2, no doubt.
Rah-Rah Boo:
The balloon in my design represents The Great Forest Park Ballon race, which is an annual tradition in Forest Park and even takes place in the same spot (Central Field) as Loufest. Many St.Louisans associate Forest Park with hot air balloons, and hopefully Loufest will become an annual tradition as well and become part of that same signifigance. Thanks for the votes!
Tee shirt #4 is totally the best representation of St Louis.
I love the guitar playing St Louis. Way cool!
I think number three is by far the best! The others look a little cliche. I think the third one best fits the festival because it is whimsical, fun, and inviting. Vote #3 because it rocks!!
I’m suspicious as to whether the artists for these shirts are even from StL…black t’s in August? Come on.

I like that Ed’s has the bands that will be there. Always nice to have a physical reminder of who you saw.
#1 is GREAT!
I am liking #2, also #4.
Option 2 is awesome. Very tasteful, expressive, and smooth!
Oh yeah, #2 rocks, the others are good but, I am Kadies’ Dad so you know where my vote went. And yes John, Kadie is from St. Lou’
Option 2 is my Fav! Creative and bright
LOVE number 5!
#2 hands down is the best! However if guys are going to wear this shirt you might want to consider printing it on a color guys would wear.
4 and 5 are also a worthy choice.
peace,
the artistinthelou
All great designs but I went with #4. I love the nods to both the city and Forest Park with the statue.
#2 is the best!
Two is my favorite, but four is a close second, just from a design perspective. I voted for one, though, because it’s the most meaningful.
Number 2 is my favorite.
I want 5 shirts – one with each design. gotta go w/ Ed as No.1
I love #1! It’s the only one that has all the band names on it. Plus, it’s the only one I can see a guy wearing.
3 and 5 are best. 3 is fun and has great colors. I like 5′s guitar tree trunk. I don’t think number 1 describes the fest well, it is a state seal with no color.
I like 1, that Ed guy has great designs;)
they all do really but 1 is my fave
Number 2 is so obvious and cliche. Plus it makes it hard for onlookers to read loufest. The U looks like a J. 5 has the real character. It’s by far the coolest design! Going with 5 all the way!
