TORY BURCH

Tory Burch is an American luxury lifestyle brand founded in New York in 2004. What began with a boutique in Manhattan and an e-commerce site has since grown into a global business with 400 stores across North America, Europe, the Middle East, Latin America, Asia and Australia. In addition, the brand is available at more than 3,000 department and specialty stores worldwide.

Tory Burch started her company with a clear purpose: to build a global luxury brand and a foundation that would advance women’s economic power. Designed in her New York atelier, the collection includes ready-to-wear, handbags, shoes, accessories, beauty and home. The Tory Burch Foundation was established in 2009 to increase women’s economic power through entrepreneurship.

Tory has been recognized with numerous awards and honors, including the CFDA for Accessory Designer of the Year, WWD Women’s Designer of the Year, Harper’s Bazaar’s Designer of the Year, the Parsons School of Design’s Table Award, the Wharton School’s Jay H. Baker Retailing Center’s Retail Excellence Award, the SCAD Étoile Award, the Breast Cancer Research Foundation’s Sandra Taub Humanitarian Award, Forbes’s Most Powerful Women in the World, and Glamour’s Women of the Year. Her first book, Tory Burch In Color (Abrams, 2014), was a New York Times Best Seller, and her designs have been featured in the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute.
