Ahhh….the feel of cashmere! Is there anything like it? This incredibly soft and high quality cashmere is sourced and produced in a remote region of northwestern Mongolia which allows traditional Mongolian herdsman and knitters to sustain their centuries-old craft. This helps them avoid pressures from cheap cashmere markets that lead to over-grazing and desertification.

Karen Stewart and Howard Brown, partners in life and work, call themselves “Organic Pioneers” because when they began in 2002 there wasn’t much demand for things like sustainable fabrics and eco-conscious style. They decided to break out of the typical textile mold, had a vision for something greater and have undoubtedly been trailblazers in the industry.
I was given an exclusive sneak peak of their Fall Collection which hits stores within the next couple weeks. You can expect the same quality craftsmanship and romantic looks that are quintessential Stewart+Brown.
Last week I had the opportunity to interview Howard Brown. Check out the interview below…
It’s time for the Gorgeous & Green
