Styling the Petra with Gabri Gofis
There’s nothing quite like a classic button-down cardigan—inherently versatile and effortlessly simple, it’s a timeless wardrobe staple any time of the year. Our Petra Cardigan, spun from a baby alpaca-merino wool blend and finished with delicate mother-of-pearl buttons, has long been a favorite of our community. On a recent day in Los Feliz, our friend Gabriella Gofis—known for her polished ease and knack for effortless layering—put her own spin on the Petra, pairing it with vintage Levi’s, a smocked lace set, and tailored suiting.

“I always have a cardigan with me when I'm going out. I like to be prepared when a chill comes my way. It's truly the best accessory and can soften an outfit, like here, paired with this sheer lace set.”

“My go-to outfit is a pair of vintage denim with a cardigan as a top or over a tank or tee. There's something so effortless about it, but it always appears put together. I knotted another Petra Cardigan as a scarf on top for added layers and texture.”

“I love using the Petra as a layering piece under a blazer and with trousers when the setting demands a strong look. I love the peek of the beautiful mother-of-pearl buttons to break up the suit.”
