According to her, “There is nowhere in the world that does embroideries and embellishments in a more beautiful way than I have found in India,” she adds.
Tory reminisces about her visit 13 years ago, when she spent six weeks travelling across Mumbai, Delhi, Jaipur, and Udaipur during the monsoons. “I love India, it’s just so incredibly beautiful,” she says. Her first trip to the country, however, was during her study-abroad programme, Semester at Sea, when she recalls going to Kolkata, “and spent many hours in line to meet Mother Teresa”.
Tory Burch actually ventured into the Indian market in partnership with Reliance Brands Limited (RBL) in 2021, with a flagship store (one of their 300 boutiques around the globe) in New Delhi’s DLF Emporio. The following year, they brought their T Monogram pop-up to Mumbai at The White Crow Pop up in Jio World Drive Mall, BKC.
