To celebrate Pride month, our newest t-shirt print pays tribute to an iconic Aussie treat: the rainbow ice-cream! We have designed this tee to be truly unisex, and suit everyone across a diverse range of sizes, genders, and ages!
Designed in-house by Kirbee and printed locally, we hope this print reminds you of all the wonderful ways you can express yourself and live colourfully, tinged with the sweet childhood nostalgia of a cold ice-cream on a hot summer’s day.
The rainbow is an iconic symbol of the LGBTQAI+ community, and symbolises pride the world over. While the rainbow was often used in flag imagery to express peace and co-operation, the pride flag as we know it now was created in 1979 by Gilbert Baker. The flag symbolises unity between people of all background coming together, and each individual stripe represents a value. They are sexuality (pink), life (red), healing (orange), sunlight (yellow), nature (green), art & magic (turquoise), harmony & peace (blue), and spirit (purple). The modern version of the flag also includes black, brown, white, pale pink, and pale blue, to symbolise the importance of inclusivity, and uplifting both people of colour and trans people.
$5 per sale of this tee will be donated directly to Black Rainbow Australia, a charity focused on the health, wellbeing and uplifting and ofAboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Intersex, Queer, Sistergirl and Brotherboy people. They work across a wide range of initiatives, including grants to host Indigenous LGBTIQ+SB community events, suicide prevention, and helping LGBTIQ+SB people of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community escape homelessness, domestic violence and the justice system.
