The Hudson’s Bay Company stripe dates back to 1780, when these blankets were exchanged for fur pelts. Eno, Zoe, I’d watch out if I were you…

Who:
Caroline Ventura
What:
Jewelry designer for BRVTVS, lover of cardigans
Wear:
My basic every day outfit is a pair of jeans (at the moment it’s a pair of men’s high waisted vintage levis that I had tapered), a t-shirt, and a pair of black ankle boots or oxfords. And I always have one of Lynne’s cardigans stashed in my bag in case it gets chilly.
Stripes or Solids?
I’m mainly a solids girl, but I like to have a stripe peeking out every now and then…
First ever cardigan memory?
When I was in high school, I was obsessed with vintage cardigans. You know the ones from the 50s that were beaded and embroidered? I loved scouring vintage shops for new ones. It’s not my earliest memory, but it’s my favorite.
Stolen goods?
I steal my husband, Michael’s, cardigans all the time. The best ones are the ones borrowed from the boys. If it’s too big, I belt it at the waist and wear it like a dress, over some tights.
Cardigan Style:
Really casual, just thrown over a t-shirt is my go-to layering choice. But I also love pairing a cardigan with a bolder pattern under something simple, like a tuxedo jacket.
If you were a cardigan, what would you be?
Something boyish, but with a feminine touch. Maybe a classic grandpa button down with some pretty suede elbow patches?

Stripes or Solids? Solids, unless its one of Lynne’s stripes of course.
What is your first ever cardigan memory? I was probably around 6, it was a hand me down from my brother. At the time, I was pretty upset because I thought everyone would call me a boy wearing my brother’s sweater with the classic bowl haircut. It was navy red and white, super chic.
Stolen goods? Haven’t we all? It was a gift from CARDIGAN to my husband but now it’s my upstate essential…and a little battered and bruised. Thankfully I got the girls version a year later.
Cardigan Style? Backwards
If you were a cardigan, what would you be? A double-faced reversible cashmere cardigan with black on one side and navy heather on the other.
Classic sailor stripes can still rock the boat when you stripe it Sidney style.

Wear: Right now I am obsessed with my Marc sweatshirt in Gravel. It’s the perfect color grey.
Stripes or Solids?
That depends on the day. Today I am solids but yesterday I was all about stripes. Ask me again tomorrow.
First cardigan memory?
When I was toddler I had a rad white and navy cardigan that had an anchor patch on it. Wish I still had that today.
Stolen goods?
Yes, I have actually stolen a couple of my roommate’s cardigans.
Cardigan Style:
I like to wear my cardigans open and drapey.
If you were a cardigan, what would you be?
I would be a very thin wool green camouflage cardigan that has contrast gravel colored wool sleeves and as an added extra camel colored leather elbow patches. Would be so rad!
