For Streetwear:

Les Benjamins

This Istanbul-based brand is known for its elevated streetwear and presentation of the contemporary East. The newest Spring/Summer 2024 collection, Kismet Voyage, sits at the intersection of the past and present, combining futuristic elements through font and color with traditional silhouettes. Perfect for an elevated streetwear look or a dressed-down vibe, here are our favorites from Les Benjamins:

For Knitwear:

Ruve

Ruve has knitwear for all weathers! Dress up knit vests with fitted pants and heels or keep it casual with a simple monochromatic look. Ruve also has great jackets with pops of color that can elevate any winter look.

For Outerwear:

The Frankie Shop

While outerwear can sometimes be an afterthought as it is often the last piece of a look, it is essential to a complete outfit. The Frankie Shop is one of our favorites for outerwear that is guaranteed to make an outfit feel and look more styled. Style both of these jackets with a black mini skirt and boot for a look that can be worn during the day and out at night. 

For Statement Pieces:

Miista

If you’re hoping to take your outfit to the next level of chic, thoughtful styling, Miista has you covered. From drool-worthy heels that can be styled with a skirt or loose trousers, to mini skirts that are perfect on their own or layered over pants, Miista pieces are an essential addition to your closet.

For Fun Bags:

STAUD

STAUD bags combine artful detailing with unbelievably fun patterns that evoke sunny, summer days. With warmer weather just around the corner and plenty of bags that work in all seasons, STAUD bags are the perfect reminder of just how fun fashion can be, no matter the temperature.
