You could have achieved a dark feeling to the photos and still have the shirts highlighted by using harsher shadows and moodier lighting techniques. In general, I would say that the focus wasn't really the shirts. Now, if your objective was to indeed to highlight the shirts in a moody/raw kind of way, I would then say it was unsuccessful.

Try using direct flashes at more oblique angles to the subject. Maybe even a harsher back light to make the shirts pop a bit more. Gels could even help it out.

Keep it up!
