Now Serving Snacks
When COVID-19 left Melbourne p̶a̶r̶t̶y̶ ̶p̶a̶l̶s̶ business associates Ruby Slippers and Egson Ham out of a gig, they set up their overlockers and some Zoom meetings and got to work making the perfect bikini bottom to take slutty selfies in whilst in isolation - and the Quarankini was born! All of the treats in the Snack Bar are designed and made (separately, in isolation, in their own homes) by Ruby and Egs in Melbourne, Australia.

TMC.JPG
She’s Frenchie to some, TMC.JPG to others and Pollybius to a few – but the creative master mind behind them all is Tara M. Cruz. You may recognise her work from the Maison Burlesque Cherry Popper's Showcase posters! Tara’s style is a mix of nostalgia and fun – fusing her love for 80s and 90s toys and cartoons with her fascination of the social expectations placed on women in society today.
From adorable illustrations to conceptual filmatic moments, this little lady can do it all. Follow her Instagram to see more of her work, and to commission custom portraits in her adorable cartoon aesthetic.
