What to know about Eileen Fisher
Separates built as one system
This is women's wear designed to interlock: boxy tops, wide or lantern pants, silk shells and knit cardigans sized to layer and repeat season after season.
Loose cuts in natural fibers
The house look is simple and unstructured, cut in organic linen and cotton, responsibly sourced wool and jersey rather than shaped tailoring.
Ownership and resale are structural
A B Corp, partly employee-owned via a 2005 ESOP, running a Renew take-back program that resells, repairs or remakes worn garments alongside its own stores.
How Eileen Fisher fits
Overall fit
runs large
Eileen Fisher garments are intentionally cut loose and boxy to layer and drape, so many shoppers find them roomier than expected and size down.
Tip: Consider sizing down as most pieces are cut generously loose and drapey.
