6. why tomboy tarts?
this brand is a platform
to share and celebrate
the true essence of the
classic tomboy
personality – the rebel –
the woman who was a
bit different from her
sisters. the woman who
wasn’t afraid to break
the rules and followed
her inner calling.
it is an opportunity for every
tomboy to learn from others and to
come together to share their
tomboy experiences with rest of
the community.
we are reviving the true
tomboy spirit; something
more than just women
wearing men’s clothing.
it‘s an attitude. a mindset. a
lifestyle - the kind that
classic tomboy greats like
Coco Chanel, Marlene
Dietrich and Amelia Earhart
embodied.
