ABOUT

WELCOME TO DAMAGED IMAGE
First of all, from the bottom of my heart, I want to thank you for choosing Damaged Image.
I started this brand to make things that feel like armor—bold, honest, a little unhinged, and totally unapologetic. If you've ever laughed through the trauma, cried in a parking lot, or declared "I'm fine" while clearly not, WELCOME. You've found your people.
We’re more than just a clothing boutique. Damaged Image is a love letter to the messy, chaotic, and beautiful process of becoming. Every piece we create—graphic tees, edgy on-trend fashion, and bold accessories—celebrates resilience, growth, and the stories that shape us.
Our mission? To build a community that finds strength in the struggle, laughter in the healing, and connection in the chaos. Whether you’ve been through the fire or you’re still walking through it, you belong here.
Visit us at our storefront in the historic Newark Arcade or shop online. Let’s wear our stories loud.
