Whether you call it Coastal Grandma, New England classic, or—the newest microtrend to grace our feeds—the Fisherman aesthetic, crisp button-downs, flowy linens, blue-and-white everything, and rich leather staples just work. Like many East Coasters, I’ve worked hard to build my wardrobe piece by piece to be timeless, effortless, and rooted in quality—never trendy, never outdated. But finding brands that truly understand my classic-meets-functional style has taken some trial and error.

I stumbled upon Dudley Stephens while wandering through Boston’s Back Bay a few years back. I was doing what I do best (people watching over a triple flat white) when I spotted the chicest woman of all time popping out of a workout studio in a getup I wanted to copy-paste onto my person. She looked polished yet easygoing, warm yet put together, and I needed the outfit links immediately. She was wearing the Dudley Stephens classic Park Slope Turtleneck, and from that moment, I knew it was a must-have staple for my closet. I placed my first of many orders that night.

What Dudley Stephens does differently:

Founded by a family of women (two sisters and their mom) who have mastered classic, functional fashion, Dudley Stephens is sustainably made, endlessly versatile, and designed to last. Their pieces are washable, stain-resistant, and incredibly durable, making them some of the smartest wardrobe investments I’ve ever made. Unlike traditional fleece and terry materials that can feel bulky or overly casual, Dudley Stephens offers polished, structured silhouettes that make the transition from laid-back weekends to more elevated outfits.
