With a couture-like aesthetic, knitwear designer Pari Desai has a knack for creating wearable pieces that feel like they’ve just stepped off a runway. Of course, it’s only natural for the Toronto native, who first designed for Calvin Klein and A.L.C. before stepping out on her own. Walking that line between upscale luxury and downtown cool is a defining factor for this Los Angeles-based line, but it’s the streamlined silhouettes and luxe yarns that will make this brand one of your new favorites.
