TIC is a clothing brand built around individuality, movement, and the things that make us different.
Born from my experience with Tourette’s, TIC explores the idea of the tic—not only as a physical movement or sound, but as a symbol of the things we sometimes try to hide.
The things that make us uncomfortable.
The things that make us feel different.
The parts of ourselves we think we need to control, conceal, or apologize for.
But there is nothing to be ashamed of.
TIC is about becoming comfortable in the uncomfortable. It is about embracing the parts of ourselves that don’t fit neatly into what is expected of us, and finding confidence in being seen exactly as we are.
Each piece is designed, constructed, and transformed by hand. Clothing becomes a canvas for experimentation—combining textiles, painting, print, patchwork, and unexpected details to create pieces that feel personal and impossible to duplicate.
TIC is rooted in Tourette’s, but it isn’t only about Tourette’s. Everyone has something they hide. Something they have been told is strange, too much, embarrassing, or different.
TIC is for those things.
For the tic.
For the difference.
For the parts of ourselves we were taught to hide.
Wear the tic.
