Prep With A Rep
When designer Vincent Flumiani lived in his car for four months, he knew it would be the start of something big - after refusing to follow in more corporate family footsteps, he set off on his own to start an LA clothing label. After working as a graphic designer for Volcom, Quiksilver, and other skate-friendly brands, Flumiani ventured into uncharted territory with a new brand of his own.
Named Caufield Preparatory after Catcher in the Rye's lit misfit, the line has three-quarter length shirts to ease the tightening of a rolled-up sleeve, plus wrinkled fabrics inspired by bunking in back of a Volvo (and perfect for picking up off the floor in a hurried morning).
Caufield Prep launches its first full line this summer, with new clothes rolling into stores like Bloomingdale's and Odin every month. Unlike other new favorites in your closet, this one doesn't need steaming and dry cleaning whenever you want to look learned.
