It all started with the phrase...

“I need that on a T-shirt.”

From the Goodwill bins to the Parisian vintage shops of the 9th arrondisment, I’ve seen, bought, loved, and shared my fair share of unique (and sometimes vulgar) graphic tees. A longtime lover of shirts that send a message, years later I decided to make my own.

The kind of clothes that get you a knowing grin from a passersby, or maybe a scowl from your conservative uncle.

The shirts struck a chord, so I grabbed a few creative friends and we started branching out into more of what sparked our imagination: jewelry, accessories, and completely custom pieces.

Elizabeth Bay is the product of years spent creating things to make people giggle, glare, or stop and ask, “Where’d you get that?”

This brand takes everything we’ve learned and builds on it to become the brand we always dreamed of creating.

With custom cut-and-sew pieces coming this summer and an expanding line of jewelry in the works, Elizabeth Bay is a celebration of community and creativity. We bring together original designs, curated pieces from small artists we love, vintage and much more.

Thanks for following along,
the EB team
