MANILA, Philippines - Beautiful, simple clothes designed to move with real life. That’s the idea behind the clothing line of Eileen Fisher. Eileen began as an interior designer in New York for whom getting dressed each day took so much effort.Then she thought about the uniform she had worn throughout high school—and it became the seed of a vision. “My clothing company really started when I began seeing all these little pictures in my mind,these garments and how they would all go together.It was a vision of simplicity,” she said.
In 1984, with $350 in the bank, Eileen designed four basic pieces at a boutique show in New York, where she received $3,000 in orders. Eileen Fisher Inc. was born.
The original concept—high quality, simple, comfortable women’s clothing that works as a “wardrobing concept”—still defines her line that now fills Eileen Fisher stores in the US and around the world.
“What I love most about Eileen Fisher clothes is they allow me to be myself,” says a customer.
In the Philippines, Eileen Fisher is exclusively distributed by Rustan Commercial Corporation and is available at Rustan’s Department Store in Makati.
