Tacky Baby began in the spring of 2024 as a fun and collaborative hobby that I shared with my mom. We started making little shorts for my toddler out of vintage fabric that I found at an estate sale and a few months later, that one pair of shorts led to dozens of tiny garments all made from vintage and thrifted fabrics carefully crafted by my mom and me.

We love finding old textiles that feel storied, unique and imperfect. Tacky Baby represents our obsession with thrift, kitsch and adorably dressed toddlers. Everything about the toddler and kid stage has a delightfully tacky flair that we hope to accentuate with our one-of-a-kind clothes made with love in Tucson, AZ.
