We are sorry. The job offer you are looking for is no longer available.

Our Story

We make timeless clothes that last a lifetime...then pair them with of-the-moment styles season after season, decade after decade.

We think that distinct heritage pairs perfectly with modern design and fabric technology. We believe in feel-good color.

Even if black or navy makes you feel best, we're here for that. We're the experts in signature categories : cashmere, coats, blazers, pants-and we also collaborate with the coolest brands out there because we know that creativity is contagious.

We consider leopard a neutral, speak stripes fluently and live for a great gingham. We believe in looking like a million bucks, not spending it-which is why we go the extra mile to source the absolute best fabrics at the most accessible prices.

We also know that we have a responsibility to the planet and to humanity to choose eco-friendly fabrics and to support our factory workers, without compromise.
