SWEET BABY RAY’S TEES
Hi i’m Ray, owner and designer of Sweet Baby Ray’s Tees!
In the fall of 2023 I took a course in screen printing in the hopes of finding a new creative outlet outside of a corporate job I was losing my mind in. Carrie Bradshaw Single & Fabulous was the first shirt I created, and with that very first print I was instantly hooked on the printing process which is extremely methodical, physical, and meditative. I was obsessed with my new tee, and wanted to see if others would love it as much as I did, so I printed a box full of shirts, ordered a clothing rack, and posted up on the sidewalk in SoHo. That first day I completely sold out, and Sweet Baby Ray’s was born.
The prints are all themed around icons of the early 2000s and reclaimed slurs used against women. As the line grows, the aim remains to create pieces that inspire confidence..and probably a double take or two.
You can now find Sweet Baby Ray’s in retail locations around NYC, Durham, and Dallas, in Artists & Fleas markets in Brooklyn and Manhattan, and being worn by icons everywhere <3
