Tory Burch Hobo Bags

About Tory burch

Tory Burch was founded in 2004 by its namesake designer, who drew inspiration from her parents' preppy aesthetic and travels. After success with her Reva ballet flats, Burch expanded into handbags like the Robinson tote. Known for vibrant colors, prints and textures, Tory Burch aims to inspire the modern, cosmopolitan lifestyle of its customers.

The Ella tote was one early entry into handbags for Tory Burch in 2005. Made of soft, supple leather with either short handles or a detachable crossbody strap, it embodied the easygoing and practical sensibility Burch wanted to convey. The Amanda series followed in 2009 as structured leather satchels and hobos with signature hardware details like the double ‘T’ medallion or chain link handles.

Tory Burch adheres to a “less is more” design philosophy focused on reinventing classic American style with unexpected and eclectic twists. Its bags feature versatile, lightweight constructions so women can transition effortlessly between work, travel and everyday use. The signature T medallion logo and vibrant color palettes infuse traditional silhouettes with a bold, modern edge.

Over the years, Tory Burch expanded into more styles like the gemini link tote with its lightweight nappa leather body and removable zip pouch. The Kira chevron shoulder bag demonstrates the playful use of color blocking in lamented canvas, leather and wool. Recent efforts also encompass sustainable materials like the Stella tote made from certified responsible paper.

The Reva ballet flat marked the inaugural Tory Burch product with the medallion logo in 2004. Since then, the double T has featured prominently across handbags as a symbol of the brand's polished yet playful American style. The Fleming convertible shoulder bag stands out for its quilted lambskin, adjustable chain strap and prominent double T's linking the flap to the body.

Tory Burch partnered with New York's Museum of Modern Art in 2022 on a special-edition enameled bracelet. A percentage of proceeds went towards MoMA acquisitions and equal arts access. The collaboration aligned with Burch’s passion for bringing people together through creative self-expression.
