Tastemaker: Tory Burch
The tastemaker of the week is Tory Burch. Chances are, you’ve heard her praise being sung everywhere from Oprah to the new CW show Privileged and seen people strutting around in her signature flats. Her style is very much so influenced by the needs of Manhattan’s upercrust, ie. girls who lunch- the younger set of polished socialites. But the hints of 60s and 70s style make her clothes edgy enough that those with more eclectic tastes are just as likely to covet Burch’s designs. In addition to being current “IT” designer, Burch can also boast the 2008 CFDA award for Accessory Designer of the Year. When the academy and the public are in agreement, you know you’re on to something really good.

I love the yellow knit shift dress and the leather coat.
That looks truly amazing! wow
Some of these looks are really great. Bottom row, third pic — I dig it.
i did not like TB until recently.
She’s not my favorite designer, although I’d gladly wear the trench, but I do think her impact on fashion is worth noting.
