Early life and career
Devon Lee Carlson grew up near Los Angeles, California and enjoyed playing dress-up and taking pictures with her sister. She trained to be a competitive dancer for fourteen years, stepping back to create a phone case company called Wildflower Cases.

Wildflower Cases
When she was 17, she met Miley Cyrus at a restaurant and asked for a selfie. Carlson gave Cyrus a customized phone case. Cyrus posted a note of thanks on Twitter, and Carlson was flooded with requests for custom phone cases. By the next day, Devon and her family had a website and were fulfilling orders from their home.

Along with her 14-year-old sister, Sydney, and mother, Michelle, she started a business called Wildflower Cases selling custom phone cases. To fund the company, the Carlson family sold the family home and moved into a rental house owned by Devon and Sydney's grandparents. Devon worked on the business full time after graduating high school and she jokingly calls the company “Wildflower University.”

They marketed the company with YouTube and Instagram and were noted for their success in social media marketing. The cases were popular among celebrities, including Bella Hadid, Dua Lipa, Halsey, and Lana Del Rey. Wildflower Cases did collaborations with popular YouTubers, social media influencers, and fashion brands. One of Wildflower's phone cases was featured on a runway for the first time at a Sandy Liang show in 2021.

As a social media influencer, Carlson does paid promotions. Devon and Sydney's Instagrams are associated with the Tumblr girl aesthetic.

Fashion design and modeling
Carlson has worked on campaigns with Louis Vuitton on a campaign and Marc Jacobs. In May 2021, she styled Olivia Rodrigo's Good 4 U music video and in 2023, she appeared in the music video for Speed Drive.

Carlson's first time designing apparel was in 2020 and 2021, when she and Marc Jacobs designed a seven-piece collection. The clothing, including a graphic sweat suit, T-shirt, handbag, and a ruffled slip dress with charms, was released in August 2021. Carlson included the silhouette of her dog Martin in some of the designs.

Personal life
Carlson likes dogs. From 2015 to 2021, she was in a relationship with Jesse Rutherford. In 2022, Carlson revealed on the Call Her Daddy podcast that she had a new partner. She later confirmed she is dating Duke Nicholson, the grandson of Jack Nicholson.
