FISHER, the American brand known for beautifully simple
clothes, officially opened the doors of its second store in Canada at Calgary’s Chinook Centre this weekend.
Blending trends and timelessness, Eileen Fisher is a designer known for
creating fashion without an expiration date. She is excited about
bringing the company’s design values to Calgary.
Fisher started her company in 1984, with a design philosophy rooted in
simplicity and ease. She has been deeply inspired by Japanese design and by
fabrics from around the world, particularly those that are artisanally
made.
“There are several reasons EILEEN FISHER chose to expand to Calgary,” explains Catherine Claman, founder and President of Se Ce Apparel Co. Ltd., Canadian distributor of the brand.
“We were struck by the focus on quality of life in Calgary and see a synergy between the ease, functionality and
simple elegance of Eileen Fisher’s clothes and the relaxed Calgarian
lifestyle. The brand has been so well received in Vancouver, and Calgary is a
great next step in our Canadian retail expansion plan!”
“We’re very excited to deepen our
relationship with the Canadian customer by opening our second EILEEN FISHER store in Calgary with our partners, Se Ce Apparel Co. Ltd.,” says Karen Gray, EILEEN FISHER’s Director of Retail and Global Development. “Known
for its natural beauty and quality of life Calgary
provides a wonderful lifestyle for residents and it is a destination for
tourists. We are looking forward to joining and contributing to this
vibrant community."
A grand opening event aimed at fueling
awareness and raising funds for the Calgary
chapter of the Women in Leadership Foundation will take place in-store on
September. Full details about the event and charity partnership to be announced
