Our Story
Welcome to Shabine Dreams, where we celebrate the rich diversity of the black community with creativity and innovation. The term, “Shabine," is a term originating in the French Caribbean, traditionally used to describe someone of mixed African and European heritage, often characterized by lighter skin and mixed features. This word embodies our brand's ethos: the celebration of diversity and the melding of different cultures.
Our founder, Tiffany, is a mixed-race woman whose graphic design journey began at 12. Over the years this passion remained a hobby, eventually leading to a small business while she was in university. After a foray into the legal field and becoming a lawyer, Tiffany took a break from graphic art. However, the advent of AI in graphic arts in 2022 reignited her interest. She started exploring her old hobby and created a successful Instagram page to share her designs. With her page gaining traction, she took on numerous custom commission works, including pieces for celebrities. The expansion into merchandise was a natural progression, intertwining Tiffany's artistic vision with a focus on black empowerment and diversity.
Our collection, comprising exquisitely crafted t-shirts and scarves, serves as a canvas for both digital and AI-generated art, showcasing the wide spectrum of black complexions. Each item stands as a testament to pride and individuality, appealing to those who cherish diversity and creativity. Tiffany's long-standing commitment to inclusivity and her refined artistic vision is palpable in every piece. Shabine Dreams isn't just about fashion; it's an embrace of a narrative, a culture, and a dedication to highlighting the multifaceted beauty of the black community.
