It got here as little shock when Stewart launched Renggli within the fall of 2023, a clothes line that consists of elevated fundamentals with up to date silhouettes which might be designed to final.
Though Stewart had already launched a sportswear line previously, she admits that venturing into clothes was a frightening expertise. “I used to be simply so excited that I used to be given the chance to do ready-to-wear,” she says, “however I wasn’t positive if it was going to promote—I had by no means bought garments earlier than, simply leggings.”
Renggli started as a quest to create the right pair of trousers that have been impressed by Carharrt work pants. “I simply felt like these weren’t available on the market in a wearable, cool method,” she says. To raise it, she handpicked easy but distinct colours in shades resembling butter yellow, ochre, and purple—a departure from fundamentals in basic neutrals—permitting customers to experiment with their model in a fragile method. After all, uniformity is vital to Stewart’s model. “I all the time joke with the crew you can’t make a teapot with no prime,” she quipped. “So every thing we make has an identical prime in the identical coloration.”
The model’s first drop again in September 2023 was wildly profitable, with a number of restocks being bought out inside an hour; a brand new drop is deliberate for April 11. However Stewart acknowledges the challenges and embraces the teachings realized from launching—and operating—a clothes enterprise. “I’ve by no means run a model, and that is my first actual expertise into that,” she says. “I feel the principle lesson I realized since launching Renggli is to have endurance, and simply take a beat. Finally issues will all the time work out how they’re imagined to, and it makes it that rather more rewarding when you nail it.”

This look is one thing I put on all day lengthy—from drinks to an off-the-cuff enterprise assembly. I’d put on it whereas operating errands, or absolutely anything. The Vans simply provides a cool contact and make it extra sensible for me to run round in. You may not see it clearly within the photograph, however I layered a Renggli cardigan over it.

We did a piece pant once we launched our previous couple of collections, however we upgraded it with this slimmer match. We simply felt like there have been some enhancements to make. We’re nonetheless going to supply the boyfriend match, however we needed to have two classes. So you would do both a boyfriend model match or a slimmer match, which I favor personally. For going out, I’d put on the boyfriend. I’d cuff up the bottoms just a little inconsistently and put on a extremely sky excessive pump and a cool jacket. For the slim match, I’d put on it within the daytime with a ballet flat. I simply suppose that that’s just a little bit extra put collectively, particularly since you don’t have the peak to play with the completely different proportions.

I simply suppose a mini skirt with ballet flats, when you needed so as to add some tights to the combo, is completely acceptable. The shirt is a white button down from Celine. I’ve had it for 2 years and it’s the right button-down—so shout out to them! My skirt is our new Renggli cargo skirt on this new stucco coloration, which I’ve to say is a extremely lovely coloration.
