The Elder Statesman

Nora Carley Vest

The Elder Statesman may be a posh name, but people flock to the California-based label for its refreshingly fun and joyful designs. Renowned for ultra-luxe knitwear, it all started when founder Greg Chait made his first small collection of blankets in 2007. Fast-forward over a decade later, and The Elder Statesman operates out of a customized arts and crafts workshop in Downtown LA, hand-making impeccably knit ready to wear in vibrant palettes and groovy prints. Hand-spun yarns, fine cashmere, and relaxed style with charming details characterize this West Coast label that is sure to bring a ray of sunshine to any wardrobe.
