No Hurry Tee #2 – Lizzie Borden Inspired Design

Sometimes silence speaks louder than screams. The No Hurry Tee #2 distills the unnerving composure of Lizzie Borden into a design that whispers instead of shouts. Inspired once again by her chilling statement during her 1893 trial—“I do not do things in a hurry”—this second edition explores the same haunting phrase with a refined aesthetic twist. It’s a nod to minimalism, suspense, and the kind of patience that leaves a lasting mark.

The backdrop is Fall River, Massachusetts. The date: August 4, 1892. Lizzie Borden’s father and stepmother were found savagely murdered with a hatchet in their home. The community was shocked, the press descended, and suspicion quickly turned toward Lizzie herself. With inconsistent alibis and suspicious behavior, she was arrested and stood trial for one of the most talked-about crimes in American history.

Yet despite the horror of the accusations, Lizzie’s demeanor was remarkably cool. Her now-famous reply to a question about timing—“I do not do things in a hurry”—felt eerie in the face of such violence. The jury acquitted her, but her name would forever be tied to mystery, murder, and unshakable composure.

The No Hurry Tee #2 builds on that legacy, offering an understated design that invites conversation, speculation, and admiration for storytelling through apparel.

Soft, flattering, and layered with meaning, this tee turns New England true crime into fashion-forward storytelling. It’s perfect for lovers of macabre history, dark folklore, and the kind of suspense that doesn’t scream—but still leaves you breathless.
