FadingRoyalty

FadingRoyalty was created as an artistic home for the creations of Anthony Bartley in 2017. After a near suicide attempt in college, Anthony began painting as a therapeutic tool and to keep a visual journal of his mental health. The brand name refers to the fleeting nature of life as everything eventually fades away, even royalty. Over time, he would come to realize the importance of his art as a therapeutic tool to people outside of himself and would start down a path of creating work to uplift others and ensure that through his art other people could feel seen. HAPPY Days Apparel was founded in 2023, in response to Anthony’s growing interest in fashion and art accessibility. HAPPY Days Apparel currently creates 1:1 custom hand-painted clothing meant for comfort with images unique to the wearer, as well as reasonably priced tees that retain the 1:1 design choices.
