About Us:
Founded in New York City and inherently cultured, FANG NYC is a gender-expansive fashion line that aims to redefine the relationship between fashion and gender, and explores the dichotomy between femininity and masculinity. With the initial goal of diversifying fashion for queer-minded people, FANG’s collections have challenged dated values and unhealthy expectations. The label hones in on statement knitwear designs and beyond that are aesthetically inclined and forward-thinking while simultaneously offering comfort and support for every body and identity.
