Cartolina (pronounced “kar·to·lì·na”) translates to “postcard” in Italian.

Founded in Nantucket, this brand is Women owned operated, and designed. Inspired by a love for traveling, exploring, and the souvenirs gathered along the way, we have an appreciation for the art of collecting the tangible and intangible, from vintage objects to lifelong memories. Through vintage fabric and faded photographs we find inspiration in the old world. It’s the spirit of nostalgia and quality we aim to revive in our clothing. 

This womenswear brand is inspired by travel, life adventures, and making memories. "My mother always taught me how important it is to enjoy a place and be an active participant in creating your life’s collection of memories. Wherever you go, whoever you meet. This, to me, means family, and my mother lives on in these memories. I hope you find a piece or two that makes you feel special. Something to wear on an adventure far away or right nearby. Something you can wear for a dinner with friends you miss or a walk along the beach. Wherever the clothes take you, I’m wishing you special memories ahead. Create your own postcards in the memory you wear."
- Margaret Anne Nolen - Founder of Cartolina
