An easy-fit tank top that fastens with double ties on either side in order to wear it in Summer on its own or with a bralette. The perfect trans-seasonal piece to add a pop of colour and sustainability to your outfit. There is even the option to wear it inside out for a fun and different contrast print!
This time our Tank Tie Top comes in our This design wears well with other bold colours layered underneath or on the bottom half of your outfit, as the hand stitching of the rainbow shipping containers allows for an almost endless pairing potential! This design would also be just as playful styled casual with a pair of denim jeans and white sneakers.
Sabine Figaro is a local, self-taught watercolour artist known for her bright, happy sketches of native Australian Flora and fauna. Sabine has such a vibrant, unique style, and with a background in microbiology, it is easy to see why Australian wildlife and the ocean are a constant inspiration in her work. Her Rainbow Container Key Design is a combination of two iconic symbols in Fremantle – the Rainbow shipping container sculpture on Canning Highway that overlooks the port, and the Round House prison which is one of Fremantle’s original buildings.
Together, these symbols come together to form a key design, which represents the unlocking of one’s potential in a city that is full of creativity, adventure and possibilities. The two symbols also represent a sort of feeling of home for Sabine, as her home overlooks both the Shipping Container sculpture and the old Fremantle Prison.

Each of our Garments is proudly signed by every craftsperson who has had a hand in making it.
