Tory Burch

The key to Tory Burch’s appeal is the polished look she brings to even the most relaxed silhouettes. And that ability to help women look both pulled together and completely comfortable keeps us coming back for more. Her first cult items were colourful, logo ballet flats and universally flattering, printed tunics – both pieces you could wear every single day. From the beginning, Tory’s designs have been personal, often inspired by her parents Buddy and Reva Robinson’s European vacation style from the 1960s and 1970s. That’s why her collections often have a kind of vintage, far-flung feel about them. Known for luxe textures, rich patterns and eye-catching homeware, Tory’s style is a real inspiration for us.

No-one does a printed maxi quite like Tory Burch, hitting that sweet spot between cool and comfortable. And every season, her structured bags and chic accessories are some of our favourite, investment-worthy staples

Founder and CEO

Tory Burch began her career in marketing with big (fashion) hitters such as Vera Wang, Ralph Lauren and Narciso Rodriguez, before launching her own brand in 2004. She started with a small team in her kitchen – and a desire to tell her story through fashion. Fourteen years later, her style venture is now a renowned, global lifestyle brand. Despite her success, we love that Tory hasn’t ever forgotten those early days and the challenges she faced as an ambitious working mother. So in 2009, she founded the Tory Burch Foundation to support and empower female small-business owners with funding, education and mentoring programmes.
