Locale: Raleigh, North Carolina, and Charleston, South Carolina, respectively; originally from Chapel Hill, North Carolina

On Southern style: In addition to bright colors and bold patterns, the designers say it’s “also about admiring the women who came before you, like wearing that beautiful necklace your mother bought in the ‘70s, and pairing it with a new outfit. We have so much old fashion jewelry from our mom and grandmothers that we still wear to this day.”

Susan Hull Walker, founder of ibu Movement

Locale: Charleston, South Carolina

Fashion rule she never follows: less is more. “When it comes to accessories, I think more is more. I will throw on one more bangle, top a perfectly good necklace with three more, or drape tables with multiple textiles that bring interest to one another,” she says.
