Elie Tahari grew up in an orphanage and immigrated to the United States in the 1970s with empty pockets , but with a heart full of spirit.
After his arrival in New York, Elie Tahari who was desperate for work went from showroom to showroom in the Garment District of New York looking for employment. Then, he learned about retailing. His position selling clothing from a boutique in Greenwich Village was his introduction to his first love, that of designing women's fashion. Elie Tahari's determination to learn and his auspicious attraction to the electric energy of New York's famed club scene, inspired the designs that propelled him into one of the Who's who in the fashion industry.
Elie Tahari survived the 70's and stayed focused on fashion. Captivated by the female spirit, he began seducing woman with his beautiful clothing. His designs were so well received; he was one of the first fashion designers who opened a boutique on Madison Avenue in 1974.
In 1980's, with his keen ability to predict what a woman wants from fashion before she even knows it, Tahari turned his attentions to the tailored suit. Today, Elie Tahari continues to empower women with designs inspired by his belief that smart women can look sexy.
