Brand: Wildfang (“tomboy” in German)

Where: Based in Portland, Oregon
Why: To give tomboys a place to call hom.

In an interview, the cofounders promised, “We’re going to offer up just as much content in editorial as we will fashion and style. The same way that Urban Outfitters has become the home for the hipster, we definitely hope that in the next few years our consumer believes that Wildfang is the home for the tomboy.”
