T*Racy by Tracy Belben

Accessories – Boston

In 2009, while between jobs in the architecture industry, I picked up a pair of pliers, and started experimenting with metal pieces from an old school project and chain from a broken necklace. From that point on, my Boston-based line, T*Racy (pronounced Tee-Racy), continued to evolve from fragments of found-objects, into fashion-forward handmade jewelry and body armor. In my work, you will find lightweight steel, aluminum, mixed metal chains and bold fabrics, brought together in unexpected connections.
