We are a Combination
of Heritage and Innovation
Our Story
In 1947, Nancy and Rudy Talbot, two entrepreneurial New Englanders, created a clothing catalog with a highly dedicated and passionate following—treasured for its spirited voice and modern classic style. Soon they moved into a historic house in Hingham, Massachusetts, a quaint and picturesque town on the South Shore outside of Boston, where they painted the front door a welcoming red to signal hospitality.
Our Culture
Ask any of our associates and they'll tell you that Talbots is a family. We support each other day in and day out. We challenge each other to reach for the best. And when someone accomplishes their goals—everyone cheers! The passion we feel for our brand and for our customers is reflected in everything we do. And along the way, we have lots of fun.
Mantra, Mission, Values
The best companies begin with a vision that defines who they are, what they hope to accomplish and how they plan to achieve those goals. We conclude that the most powerful ways to express the core of Talbots was to divide it into these three statements. Our Mantra: the four beliefs that stand behind everything we do Our Mission: what we do, how we do it - and why Our Values: how we turn our mantra & mission into action, every day
