ABOUT THE DUDLEY STEPHENS BRAND
Are you new to the Dudley Stephens? If so, there are a few things that you should know. First and foremost, their team is amazing. Seriously. I’m a big believer that great brands start with phenomenal people. Their collection is full of classics, and I wear their pieces nearly every single week. However, their team also has a big heart, and they’re a joy to work with. Truthfully, that’s not always the case in fashion. It’s rare, and I’m so thankful to have been able to partner with them over the years.
Also, I love their collection is eco-conscious, and everything is made with innovative, recycled fabrics. Additionally, their versatile line is full of pieces that you’ll have in your closet forever. I love the way their team plays with colors, new fabrics, styles, etc.
Dudley Stephens Turtleneck Styles
Dudley Stephens is mainly known for one thing – fleece. Listen, for many years, I thought fleece was an outdated fabric. In fact, it brought me back to college and guys wearing North Face fleeces. Bob still wears those jackets, lol. However, these are not your boyfriend’s fleece jackets. Not even close.
Dudley Stephens is most known for their iconic turtleneck styles. Plus, they have three main turtleneck fits – see below for all the details.
Cobble Hill Turtleneck
So where do you start? Well, the Cobble Hill style is their flagship turtleneck. Plus, it’s one of their bestselling styles. The Cobble Hill (featured above) is a tunic length and comes with pockets (yay!). If you love to wear sweaters with leggings, this is the style for you. Plus, on chillier days, the length makes for a perfect jacket alternative to throw on after a gym workout. For me, I love to pair the Cobble Hill with skinny jeans that hit at the ankle like above.
Greenpoint Turtleneck
The Greenpoint (featured above and below) is one of their newest turtleneck style. This cut is basically, it’s their “midi” style. Not too short, not too long, just right! Over time, this length has become a personal favorite. Pretty sure I own it in a dozen hues! What I like best about the Dudley Stephens Greenpoint turtleneck is that it’s perfect to tuck into a skirt. An instant way to elevate the look and make it workwear ready! Also, it’s a great option to wear with jeans for those who prefer a bit of “coverage” but not needing the full tunic length.
Park Slope Turtleneck
The Dudley Stephens Park Slope turtleneck (seen below) is a more traditional cut that hits just below the waist. To note, I’m able to tuck this style into skirts as well. However, if you have a longer torso, the Park Slope would most likely be best to keep untucked. Just like the Cobble Hill and Greenpoint styles, this one is available in so many colors. Best of all, at $99 with an additional discount via code ‘JENN25,’ it’s a great opportunity to stock up!
Other Dudley Stephens Styles
Over the life of the brand, they’ve expanded far beyond their iconic turtleneck styles. From my new fave blazer (seen below) to zip-ups, dresses, shawls, jackets and more, Dudley Stephens is a full lifestyle apparel brand. Moreover, they continue to create new styles and patterns each season! In case you missed it, they also have the most adorable kid’s layers!
#DSGIVES and Giving Back
Beyond creating phenomenal items, Dudley Stephens is a brand that gives back. I love they have a heart for doing good in the world. Through their #dsgives program, they provide financial and in-kind support via partnerships with St. Jude Children’s Research HospitalⓇ and local organizations like Bundles of Joy.
Better yet, it’s a female-founded and run brand who provides financial and in-kind support via partnerships with St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Nothing better than a brand who gives back!
Dudley Stephens Size Guide
Prior to buying a Dudley Stephens piece, be sure to check out their comprehensive size guide. In fact, I find theirs to be much more thorough than most other brands! Normally, I find the turtlenecks to fit true to size and the joggers to fit slightly large. If you feel in between sizing on the turtleneck, go down a size if you plan to tuck it into skirts and pants and prefer a fitted look. Should you like your look to be loose and untucked, go up one size.
5 Reasons to Buy Dudley Stephens
Below, I’m sharing five reasons to buy Dudley Stephens. Rest assured, this brand knows what they’re doing, and they don’t cut corners when they make their styles!
FEMALE-FOUNDED, FAMILY-OWNED BRAND
First, it’s a female-founded, family-owned brand! Furthermore they take pride in manufacturing and retailing responsibly. Dudley Stephens co-founders are two sisters, Lauren Stephens and Kaki McGrath.
Lauren is the face of the brand, and she’s the creative force behind social media, editorial and events calendars, etc. Plus, she leads the marketing plan, brand relationships, design and production. She’s a sweetheart, and I’m so thankful to know her!
On the other hand, Katherine (or “Kaki,”), focuses on the operations of the brand and Chief Operating Officer. Overall, she keeps the digital shop updated, tracks, fulfillment and oversees customer service.
MADE IN THE USA
Thankfully, all of their products are made in the US! In fact, each piece is crafted in Brooklyn, New York. I love their commitment to producing and manufacturing products in the U.S. Guys, it’s SO expensive to do so (especially vs. overseas).
THE LENGTH
What about length? As shown above, the brand has three core styles of turtlenecks, so it’s easy to find the perfect one for you! Better yet, each piece is ridiculously soft. Plus, each style serves a different purpose depending on the day or occasion.
THE FIT
Perhaps my favorite aspect of the classic turtleneck is the fit. Sure, you have the structured, stand-up collar, which is fantastic! However, there’s a roomy fit throughout the body.
SUSTAINABLE
Sustainable? You bet – the majority of their styles are spun from recycled materials. To date, Dudley Stephens fleece pieces have redirected more a million plastic bottles into sustainable products. Plus, they’re careful to avoid over-production and waste.
