On the Record with Molly Nutter, President of ByGeorge

Where Luxury Fashion, Lifestyle and Music Meet in Austin, Texas.

Molly Nutters of ByGeorge is always dressed for the party.

Music and fashion are inextricably intertwined. From Graham Parsons’ legendary Nudie suit to the White Stripes strict color code of red and white, artists express themselves visually as much as they do through their music. ByGeorge president Molly Nutter says “Music and style go hand in hand. Musicians come to shop and hang out. They buy clothes for their tour, but also for their everyday lives. They’re part of the fabric of the city.”

  • The crackle of vinyl has the power to elevate even the simplest of moments—morning coffee, a slow evening by the fire, or the gentle rhythm of snowfall outside your window. With this in mind, we’ve handpicked a collection of albums designed to complement the season, each offering a distinct kind of coziness when played through a Wrensilva.

  • Miles Davis – In a Silent Way (1969)

    Envelops listeners in a warm, hypnotic blend of ambient jazz fusion.

  • FKJ - Just Piano (2021)

    A minimalist masterpiece of gentle, improvised piano compositions that flows calmly. Ideal backdrop for slow evenings spent curled up indoors.

  • Junip - Fields (2010)

    Earthy folk melodies with dreamy, synth-infused textures, carried by José González's serene vocals.

  • Arthur Verocai – Arthur Verocai (1972)

    Lazy morning jazz out of Brazil. A legendary album that deeply influenced hip-hop sampling.

  • Bon Iver – Bon Iver (2011)

    A sonic tapestry, layered with intricate harmonies and lush instrumentation, that is both intimate and expansive, evoking a sense of longing and nostalgia.

  • Weyes Blood - And In The Darkness, Hearts Aglow (2022)

    Creates an atmosphere of wonder with its blended genres and soothing vocals.

  • Each of these selections was chosen for its ability to transport, soothe, and enrich your winter rituals. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the luxury of slowing down.

Curated selection of women’s fashion finds displayed for shopping at ByGeorge.

ByGeorge keeps Austinites plugged into what’s happening in fashion. An institution in the city for nearly 45 years, the store has expanded to two stores in Austin and one in New Orleans. The shelves and racks at the shop showcase a thoughtfully curated selection of new talent and established fashion houses, as well as homeware, beauty products, books… and now music, in the form of vinyl spinning on Wrensilva record consoles. The collaboration with Wrensilva was a natural fit. Molly says, “As soon as I saw the photos of the consoles, I was intrigued. Then I heard the story behind the high level of craftsmanship, not just of the console itself, but also the audio side with the turntable, and I knew that our customers would be interested. Whether it’s a watch, furniture or clothes, ByGeorge customers seek out the best, most beautifully made, qualitative version of that product that they can. They want the thing that not everyone has. They’re not followers. They want to be first.”
