Mardi Gras T-Shirts

Mardi Gras T-Shirts

Mardi Gras has its origins in ancient Rome, and in the celebrations of Saturnalia and Lupercalia, and in 1699, Mardi Gras was introduced to the U.S. by French-Canadian Pierre Le Moyne d’Iberville. With such a storied history to draw upon, it’s not surprising that our Independent Creators have been inspired to upload thousands of Carnival-themed t-shirts and Mardi Gras clothing designs to our site (and to this page you’re on, in particular). Learn more about how to design and personalize a t-shirt in the instructions below, and then shop Mardi Gras t-shirts on Zazzle today!

Mardi Gras T-Shirt Ideas

If this is your first Mardi Gras, then bienvenue! Held on the day before Ash Wednesday and variously known as Fat Tuesday, Shrove Tuesday and Pancake Tuesday around the world, Mardi Gras usually means parades, marching bands, masquerade balls and extensive use of the traditional purple, green and gold colors – which is a good place to start when designing your t-shirts and Mardi Gras gifts. Because Mardi Gras is most commonly associated with New Orleans and ethnically French cities in the U.S., you could include some phrases en français, or the fleur-de-lis, the national symbol of France. You could even make some reference to Louisiana culture, like the bayou and crawfish, or add an image of a mask and feathers to prepare yourself before you step on a float! You could also record the date of this year’s festival, February 13, on your Mardi Gras shirts for 2024.
