Presenting Tory Burch’s retro-inspired Holiday ’20 collection

The latest collection by US label TORY BURCH was inspired by the designer’s own festive memories, offering pieces that are elegant and practical – and perfect as a glamorous gift this holiday season

Tory Burch has become renowned for her refined feminine polish, seamlessly weaving together vintage references with contemporary bohemia to offer an aesthetic that is at once eclectic and enduringly wearable. Since establishing her label in New York in 2004, the designer and her brand have become award-winning stalwarts of the American fashion landscape, peddling pieces that are as fit to wear on cool city days as at country club tea parties.

The designer trained in art history, rather than fashion, and as a result her clothing today is both whimsical yet grounded in a natural, everyday practicality – think chunky sweaters that prove the perfect off-duty staples, as well as decidedly feminine dresses that can be dressed up for festive occasions with a pair of strappy heels and dressed down for everyday wear with a refined ankle boot.

Tory Burch’s Holiday 20 collection is no exception and offers pieces for a pristine party look, as well as for gifting. Vintage-inspired prints are splashed across silk blouses and pants that are both chic and comfortable – wear with heels for dinner parties or with a slip-on mule for a lavish take on pajama dressing. Fair Isle sweaters in candy colors turn the festive sweater into a chic enduring staple that is guaranteed to be treasured for winters to come – in such jovial hues, it promises to delight as a gift this holiday season.

Designer Tory Burch herself was inspired by her own festive memories and has created evocative clothing to match the season of gifting and goodwill. “Dressing for the holidays doesn’t stop at parties,” she says. “Some of my happiest memories are spending hours at home with my family in Valley Forge or lighting a fire and curling up with a great book while the snow falls outside the window. I love fabrics with personality – combining prints is such a great way to look chic and festive, which is exactly what these precious memories warrant.” Whether a gift for a loved one or something special for yourself, Tory Burch certainly has your holiday season all wrapped up.
