Derek Lam Sweaters
Derek Lam 10 Crosby  - New York -  $300+

Women wearing high end sweaters.

Your gal wants...

  • a sweater with "texture." (Any company can make a plain sweater in a single color with a flat feel, but these are designed to break away from that monotony.)
  • a sweater that is a fashion statement in itself. (Your gal can wear any of these sweaters with just an old pair of jeans and some earrings...and she's got herself an instant outfit that's several steps above the typical casual look. In other words, these sweaters "make" the outfit regardless of what else she chooses to wear with them.)

Your gal doesn't want...

  • all of her sweaters to be overly bulky. (These won't keep her warm in a raging snowstorm, but they'll fit the bill in slightly cool weather when she's aiming to impress with her outfit.)
