Queer Joy Bandana

£22.00

Color:Black

Variant

The first bandana I ever made, and still the one I reach for.

A wearable declaration of queer joy, printed in white ink on black cotton. Unicorns, carnations, lavender and roses, all symbols with real queer history behind them, woven together with affirming phrases into one bold composition. The layout is a nod to the queer hanky code: visibility, solidarity, desire and resistance, coded once out of necessity and worn now out of choice.

I grew up under Section 28. Finding joy anyway is the whole point.

Proudly stocked at Queer Britain, the UK's first LGBTQ+ museum.

100% soft cotton
Generously sized at 56cm x 56cm
Screen printed by Fox at Ink Spot Press, Brighton
Soft, durable, and made to be worn, tied, gifted, framed or lived in

Wear as a neckerchief, on your bag, in your hair or wrapped around your doggo's neck. Limited edition design. Free UK postage and free stickers with every order.
