the story so far
Hi, I'm Michelle — the sailor sweetheart behind Hello Sailor Me. I'm a lifelong lover of vintage style, rockabilly music, and the golden-age pinup art that made women look bold, playful and unapologetically feminine.
Hello Sailor Me started because I couldn't find the kind of vintage-inspired tees I actually wanted to wear — soft, well-fitted raglan tees with original pinup artwork that felt fun and authentic, not costumey. So I decided to make them myself.
Every design is drawn with love and printed onto soft, breathable cotton raglan tees. The collections are small, considered, and made to be worn everywhere — from the diner to the dancefloor.
Every design begins with a love of vintage fashion, classic pin-up art and rockabilly culture. From beautiful beach babes and glamorous mermaids to cheeky diner girls and timeless leopard prints, each illustration is created to celebrate individuality and bring a little retro magic to your everyday wardrobe.
My signature 3/4 sleeve raglan T-shirts are designed to be comfortable, flattering and easy to wear — whether you're heading to a classic car show, a rock 'n' roll weekend, a day by the coast or simply adding a vintage twist to everyday life. Every design is exclusive to Hello Sailor Me and professionally printed in the UK using premium-quality garments made to be worn and loved for years to come.
Ever since watching Grease as a child, I've been captivated by the fashion, music and confidence of the era. What started as a dream has grown into a collection of original pin-up and rockabilly-inspired designs that celebrate strong, fun and fearless women.
Hello Sailor Me is an independent business based in the United Kingdom. Every order is packed by hand and sent with a little note of thanks. When you buy from Hello Sailor Me, you're supporting a small UK business — and I appreciate every single one of you. ⚓❤️
