[4] She majored in Religious Studies at Rockhurst University, [2] [5] then worked as a production manager for a New Delhi clothing company in 2006. On returning to Kansas City, at age 23, Noland opened a boutique in the Crossroads, Kansas City, called Peggy Noland Kansas City which has since closed as of 2018.

[7] In August 2009, Noland opened a second boutique for a month in Berlin, Germany with the help of the Kansas City Artists Coalition [8] and a grant from the Lighton International Artist Exchange Program. [1] [9]

Clothing Label

The aesthetic of the Peggy Noland brand has been described as "white trash meets high class". [10] Her aesthetic is commonly referred to[ by whom? ] as a mixed style of meth addicts from her hometown in Independence, Missouri combined with an eccentric, Parisian old-lady. She is notorious for taking corporate logos and morphing them into an art form of their own. Her belief in consumerism and branding has led to a "mix of LA pop art and KC gutter-punk". [11]

Her work uses bright colors, full-body leotards and patterns. [12] Her designs have been worn by several musicians, including Rihanna, Miley Cyrus, [10] Lovefoxxx from Brazilian band CSS, [13] [14] Kianna Alarid from the Omaha, Nebraska band Tilly and the Wall, [13] Fischerspooner, [14] Chicks on Speed and The Ssion. [8] Actress Alia Shawkat has also bought one of her works. [13] In 2009, she worked with Bec Stupak. [1]

Her work has appeared in fashion and music magazines including WWD, [13] Elle, Elle Japan, Dazed and Confused, [1] Vogue, British Vogue, Nylon, Nylon Japan, Spin, Rolling Stone, and Missbehave, [15] as well as fashion blogs, like TeenVogue [14] and StyleBubble. [16]

From 2015 to 2019, Peggy owned a storefront in Echo Park that adorned such art installations as giant, green styrofoam hands and "cartoony body-building babe figures". [17]

Personal Style

She is known for her distinctive hairstyles, which have changed over the years. Early in her career, the hair was shaved on top, while leaving the back and sides long. Before 2013, she had the sides and back shaved, wearing long hair on top. From 2013 until 2017, she only shaved the top bald. [11]
