Laurie B. is perhaps one of the most distinctive of all of the designers available at Vintage Fringe. The American knitwear line: Laurie B. is the creation of Laurie Brazeau. Laurie was born in Mexico, raised in the United States and traveled the world searching for work and inspiration. After working for years in Paris as a private label designer she returned home and launched her own knit line Laurie B. working from her own home in Oakland, California. While Laurie has no formal design school training she has managed to build her brand and her style into a recognizable icon for knitwear internationally. She credits her international travels, vintage shopping skills, and her color outside the lines mentality as her inspiration behind her one of a kind designer style. Here are a few examples of great outside the lines sweaters that will help you create your own distinctive style:
