An 80s icon returns to colour your world!

A pop culture icon and a beacon of kindness, courage and optimism, Rainbow Brite has been brightening our world for over four decades. With her magical belt and a heart full of hope, she’s inspired generations to chase away the gloom.

Now, in this officially licensed collaboration, storytelling and joy has come to life through wearable art that will colour your world (and wardrobes) once more!

Featuring brooches, earrings, necklaces, enamel pins and more, this collection celebrates friendship, nostalgia and every shade of happy.

Watch the reveal video and scroll down for more product details, then decide your must-haves and prepare for launch photography and product details.

We are carrying the ENTIRE collection, EXCEPT the Key Rings.

And yes, we’re going live at the exact same time as the global release. Please note the time adjustment due to daylights saving time.

⚠️To be transparent, I only ordered 1-2 each of Canary Yellow Brooch, Indigo Brooch, Starlite NECKLACE, and Starlite Wall Art.

⚠️ Heads up: The prices in Erstwilder’s video are in AUD. Here at Fab Hatters we charge in good ol’ USD.

Below is the RRP pricelist in $USD.

🛫 Our originally scheduled STORE CLOSURE from December 5–15, 2025 has been CANCELED due to 2/3 of the Fab Hatters team having serious leg injuries requiring surgery.

We would really appreciate your support during these difficult times. Why? Because the Fab Hatters household basically turned into the set of a medical drama.

My mum—who normally counts every single Erstwilder item —broke her leg into THREE pieces (yes, three) last week, got surgery immediately, and is now fully bedbound until she recovers.
My sister’s ACL surgery decided to be rude and fail, so she’s also heading back under the knife. In case you didn't know, Grace is the one who draws our cute thank you card doodles. It turns out her initial surgery was botched, failed finally last week, and she needs at least 2 more corrective surgeries with 1.5-2 years before she will be back to normal. Plus the copay for each of the surgeries is several thousand.
And me? I’m the new full-time caretaker, which means fewer hours to work & less income!

This collection drop will be unaffected, though I will be offering select discounted items from the launch. My shipment arrived looking like it had taken a shower—some boxes suffered water damage, while the jewelry inside is perfectly fine and fabulous! I had an INDUSTRIAL dehumidifier that dried everything out completely as soon as I received my wet order.

Many pieces were safely plastic-wrapped, but a few larger items have dinged or soggy cardboard packaging. Think of it as a tiny cosmetic flaw discount for the adventurous collectors. I will have the NECKLACES for $2 off each at launch, I dont think they have noticeable water damage to the boxes, except that a tiny bit of the edge of a sticker might be less tacky.

As for the WALL ART, one box got REALLY SOAKED, but the wall art itself is fine. One will be discounted by $20, it doesn't close properly and there is water stains and warping to the box. One other wall art only has light water droplet stains to the box, it will be discounted $5.

✨ So treat yourself, stock up, and help support our tiny, mighty, minority-owned family business during a wild season of plot twists. Thank you for being here—and for shopping quirky! ✨

Also get a free GWP when you spend a minimum of $100 or more in jewelry!

👜 And since you’ll need somewhere to stash all those goodies, we just added new bags to the shop—including our Judy Bags & Hand Bags by Magic Society and Ham Bags & delightfully rude Scum Bags by Arcane Bullshit. Perfect for carting your kale (or your questionable life choices) around the farmer’s market. Browse them here.
