STARTING:
Nancy Talbot co-founded a women’s clothing store with her husband in 1947 that catered to a “country club” set and oversaw its growth into a catalog powerhouse and retail chain.
When Nancy and her husband, Rudolf Talbot, inherited his father’s cramped clothing store in the Boston suburb of Hingham, Mass., they renamed it “The Talbots.” They also stocked it with classic women’s apparel that reflected Nancy’s affinity for color and personal style.
Eventually, the store became known as Talbots -- and as a trendsetter for the suburban set.
“Talbots was like a brand. It stood for something,” Susan Rolontz, a New York City-based fashion analyst, told The Times on Friday. “She came up with a lifestyle approach to dressing that worked very, very well. The clothes were more or less traditional with a twist!
TODAY:
Michelle Obama has provided some of the brand’s livelier moments including wearing Talbots while doing the mom dance with Jimmy Fallon on his late-night talk show. Such public sightings of Talbots-clad celebrities result in an immediate spike in online traffic, brand interest, and a boost in social media followers.
Having celebrities wear the brand like Taylor Swift, Reese Witherspoon, Kelly Ripa, Drew Barrymore, and Gayle King has been moment of pride.
