Ann Taylor’s rich heritage dates to 1954, when founder Robert Liebeskind, the son of a dressmaker, opened his first shop. Back
then, “Ann Taylor” represented a best-selling dress style that had been gifted to the storeowner by his father. The “Ann Taylor”
design embodied the well-dressed woman, and the Ann Taylor legacy was born. By 1983, Ann Taylor had grown from a regional, primarily
East Coast brand, to a national brand with 47 stores across the United States. Today, the Ann Taylor brand is represented by three
divisions: Ann Taylor Stores, Ann Taylor LOFT, and
Ann Taylor Factory. At the end of Fiscal 2007, Ann Taylor operated 869 stores throughout the
United States, District of Columbia and Puerto Rico and generated more than $2.3 billion in sales.
Our mission at Ann Taylor is to provide women with updated classics that are feminine, stylish, versatile and polished and that
wardrobe her across all aspects of her evolving lifestyle. Ann Taylor offers sophisticated and refined style for the woman who
always wants to look appropriate in classic, updated fashion. From a young professional wanting to start on the right foot as
she enters the workforce to the mother of three wanting to look best for her family function, Ann Taylor clients place a premium
on how they are perceived. We strive to serve as a trusted advisor to help women with all of their wardrobe needs.
