Book
Tomboy Style: Beyond the Boundaries of Fashion was published in 2012 by Rizzoli.
A bound visual history that chronicles the past eighty years of women who blur the line between masculinity and femininity, Tomboy Style explores the evolution of the style and its icons. Vivid commentary illuminates the tomboy's history and captures a diversity of women who are bound together by their inherent ability to seamlessly blend a rugged sensibility with classic, understated elegance.
"Lizzie Garrett Mettler’s new book Tomboy Style: Beyond the Boundaries of Fashion celebrates the impact that the tomboy spirit has had on fashion (not to mention ever-changing perceptions of femininity) through the years. Filled with shots of classically stylish female archetypes from all walks of life, this one’s just as good a coffee table pick up for the guys as it is for the ladies." -GQ Magazine
