OUR PURPOSE

Harper Wilde was created to empower women. As two busy, professional women, we didn’t understand why the process of buying bras sucked - we knew women deserved a better way to buy their most basic commodity.  So we set out to take the B.S. out of Bra Shopping - to create the most convenient experience, with an intelligently-designed, fairly-priced product that women would be proud to stand behind.

After talking to hundreds of women and working with renowned designers, we created everyday bras that match a woman’s real needs —including the needs of her bank account. We built a shopping experience that removes the middlemen and offers Free Home Try-Ons of our 3 core styles. Because of this, we are able to provide higher quality products, made by women and for women, at half the price.

But Harper Wilde isn’t just about selling bras. We empower every Wilde Woman—from our employees to our factory workers to girls who can’t afford an education. We are committed not only to lifting up your ladies, but also to lifting up the future generation of leading ladies.

OUR STAGE

Early. Real early. Eating-dinner-at-5pm early. Okay, you get the point. It’s important that we bring on team members who understand what it means to work at a fast-paced growing startup where everyone needs to get their hands dirty and everyone is learning.
