Hello! I'm The Parasol Lady, the passionate crafter behind 
Tailored Parasols.

I specialize in creating hand-crafted, parade-perfect umbrellas and parasols — with a proud focus on officially licensed Phi Beta Sigma™ designs. Whether for Mardi Gras second lines, Founders Day celebrations, alumni events, or personal tributes, each piece honors the fraternity's rich history, royal blue colors, and powerful symbols like the dove and crescent.

All my licensed Phi Beta Sigma™ umbrellas are reviewed and approved for brand integrity, produced in limited quantities, and available exclusively through the official Affinity Greek Licensing Marketplace at https://greeklicensing.com. Secure checkout, taxes, and shipping handled there.

I've also added a selection of custom, non-licensed variations to the gallery for those seeking unique flair outside official channels — perfect for inspiration or personal use.

Explore the gallery below for examples like the Mini PBS Parade Parasol, PBS Secondline Mardi Gras Umbrella, and Founders Day designs. If you're ready to bring one home, head straight to the Affinity Marketplace!
