The Story of Our Name - As Narrated by Lisa Baarns

If you’ve read The Never Ending Story, you know that only the right name gives things their reality. 
Our name: Wilde & Bowery is equal parts nostalgia for the Bowery of two centuries ago and dollops of dark beauty a la Wilde.
It is always the year 1800 at W&B and the Bowery is at its apogee - the place to see and be seen in New York. 
Oscar Wilde is our resident ghost. He speaks to us so often and so charmingly we had no choice but to offer him tenure at W&B Headquarters.
And there you have it, the story of our name.
