SEATTLE, Aug. 22 (UPI) -- A Seattle designer says he has created a cheeky clothing line intended to skirt school dress codes.

Dress Code Violator shirts feature cryptic messages such as "Grim Tidy Liar,” which is an anagram for the suggestive phrase, “I’m a Dirty Girl” -- not something most schools would want to see their students wearing.

The idea is to allow kids to express themselves by wearing shirts with disguised messages that would normally get them detention for breaking their school’s dress codes, designer Ronnie Bramsche said in a statement.

Bramsche’s company has also offered a $5,000, risk-free guarantee.

If the wearer of one of these shirts receives detention, suspension or even expulsion and wants to pursue legal action, the company will contribute $5,000 to the plaintiff's legal expenses.
