Swirl Syndicate was inspired by my daughter Simone, who — with her Caucasian father’s fair complexion and red hair and her African-American mother’s…well, nothing but big brown eyes, at the time — constantly drew double takes during mommy & me strolls when she was an infant. This collection of tongue-in-cheek tees is meant to take the taboo out of the race topic and celebrate the beauty of having a rich mixed heritage. Designer Leigh-Ann Jackson is a former style columnist and full-time mother. Swirl Syndicate designs are printed on sweatshop-free 100% cotton T-shirts.
