Tory Burch
GET UPDATES FROM Tory Burch
Tory Burch is an attainable, luxury, lifestyle brand defined by classic American sportswear with an eclectic sensibility, which embodies the personal style and spirit of its co-founder and creative director, Tory Burch. Perceiving a void in the market for a sophisticated American aesthetic at an accessible price point, Tory wanted to create stylish yet wearable clothing and accessories for women of all ages.

Tory Burch was launched in February 2004 as a lifestyle concept with multiple product categories, including ready-to-wear, handbags, shoes and jewelry. Going against the minimalist trend that was popular at the time, Tory designed her flagship boutique, in downtown New York, to feel more like a room in her own home than a traditional retail store. Key design elements featured in all boutiques include orange lacquer doors, mirrored walls, and Lucite fixtures.

In October 2009, Tory Burch Eyewear was launched in partnership with Luxottica Group. The collection has a vintage, yet modern feel that reflects the unique spirit of the brand. Tory wanted to create a collection that was not only distinctive, but also incredibly well-made and accessibly priced.

Tory’s childhood on a farm outside of Philadelphia, as well as her mother and father’s unique sense of personal style, influence the aesthetic of the collection. Her sensibility is also inspired by art, photography, films travel, and the work of interior designer David Hicks. Graphic prints, bold colors and ethnic detailing are all signatures of the brand. Celebrity fans include Blake Lively, Cameron Diaz, Oprah Winfrey, Jennifer Lopez, Uma Thurman and Hilary Swank.

Born in Valley Forge, Tory graduated from The University of Pennsylvania with a degree in Art History and moved to New York to pursue a career in the fashion industry. She has worked for some of America’s greatest designers, including Ralph Lauren, Vera Wang and Narciso Rodriguez at Loewe. Tory currently resides in New York City with her three young sons.

In June 2008, Tory won the CFDA award for Accessory Designer of the Year. In November 2007, she was honored by the Accessories Council of Excellence with the award for Accessory Brand Launch of the year. In 2005, the Fashion Group International awarded her with the Rising Star Award for best new retail concept.

In June 2009, Tory launched The Tory Burch Foundation in Los Angeles with Mayor Villaraigosa. The Foundation provides economic opportunities to women and their families in the United States through microfinance. Please visit toryburchfoundation.org for more information.

Tory Burch is available at 23 free-standing Tory Burch boutiques across the US, toryburch.com, two international boutiques as well as over 450 select department and specialty stores worldwide.

That Seventies Show

(72) Comments | Posted March 28, 2011 | 6:19 PM

The Seventies are often referred to as the decade that taste forgot. This is unfair, and for anyone who really loves fashion, it's just not true. Granted, between bell-bottoms and cheap polyester, it had moments of caricature, but what decade is fully above reproach? In fact, the Seventies gave us...

When people think about fashion and shoes, the stiletto most often comes to mind. Popular culture has ingrained in us that style equates to a high, high heel and one that is sometimes dangerously skinny. Full-disclosure: I love high heels. I'm only 5'4" so any extra inch helps. That doesn't...
