THE TALE OF THE MANHATTAN MERMAID
"I am the Manhattan Mermaid. I crave depths, I seek beauty. I am discovering who I am endlessly. My soul is made of water, my heart is forged by Venus. My treasures are dear to me. Some say I am wild, some say I am mysterious -- I say I am free because I am always myself."
New York City based curator, stylist and designer Janice Hampton founded her brand, The Manhattan Mermaid, in 2025.
The brand is anchored in romance, weaving a world where femininity is tangibly ethereal. Each piece is a treasure,
crafted and collected for their one-of-a-kind nature, possessing the beauty of individuality.​
​
The vintage capsule is a trove of rare and exquisite finds, personally curated by Hampton. This collection invites
you to step into a realm of alluring mystique.
Stitching dreams with reality, Hampton has also designed and handcrafted accessories --
an intimate offering that cannot be found anywhere else.
​
As modern mermaids, women who are drawn to The Manhattan Mermaid are endlessly enchanted by the art of dressing.
