Downtown Eclectic is no longer the same Eclectic Abby Traylor, owner of The Leopard Fox boutique, was dying to leave in high school. 

"I did not want to live in Eclectic," Traylor said. "I wanted to live in New York or somewhere where fashion was a big deal because going to school here, I would dress up every day, I looked at Teen Vogue, and I would of course get made fun of sometimes because nobody else really got it."
