d.RT is a curated collection of fashion-forward menswear targeted for young men between the ages of 13 and 30. The brand was founded in fall 2020 by 17-year-old Dylan Thompson, his sister Paula Brunson, and her husband, Brian Brunson.
Along with specializing in creating an accessible, yet elevated, collection anchored in comfortable, easy-to-care-for pieces, the trio plans to create an online peer-to-peer platform and community that will support the unique challenges that face boys at the cusp of young adulthood.
“d.RT needed to be more than just clothing. It needed to be a whole lifestyle,” says Paula. “A place where boys can become young men first, and then become men. No leapfrogging the middle. I’m proud to say that I think we’ve accomplished this, and we’ll keep striving for this as we go forward.”
