Tory Burch is known as a
fashion lifestyle brand defined by classic American
sportswear with eclectic sensibility. Tory designs
practical clothes that are stylish and her accessories
are for women of all ages. The colors are bright, pinks
and cheerful yellows, inspired from the bright hued
homes in South Africa. The Bohemian spirit is seen in
the watercolors and abstract prints in her shirts and
dresses. Audrey Hepburn is a constant source of
inspiration with her consistent sophisticated look.
