Starting at the ground floor, Tragic Beautiful began at a kitchen counter; this is where Mel (Head Witch) who facing a tough pregnancy at the time - wove the first threads of our unique tapestry by creating the original Tragic fluffy leg warmers with all but $200. These early days coincided with the dawn of online shopping - fueled by a passion for the gothic and alternative, we envisioned a space where kindred spirits of the counterculture could find not just clothing but a true sense of belonging.
