In a lively Saturday morning conversation at the Vogue Café in SoHo, designer and founder Tory Burch sat down with Nicole Phelps for a live recording of The Run-Through.Burch shared stories of her extraordinary rise from a single storefront on Elizabeth Street in Nolita to 400 stores worldwide. She spoke candidly about navigating a very public divorce, the 2008 financial crisis, and the devastating toll of the pandemic, including losing a longtime colleague to COVID. Burch also spoke about the Tory Burch Foundation, which she launched in 2009 to support women entrepreneurs through mentorship, community, and access to capital – a mission she said was central to her reason for starting the company in the first place. For young people hoping to break into fashion, she borrowed advice she got from her parents: "Negativity is noise."Plus: Anok Yai is British Vogue’s cover star!The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.
