What We Do

A tapestry is made of many threads woven into one story. So are we. Our global house of brands unites the magic of Coach and Kate Spade New York. By intertwining different people and ideas we push ourselves in our work pull out the unexpected in what we create and expand the bounds of possibility. Our brands were created by dreamers who were determined to turn ideas into icons and with passion made it happen. We’ve grown by finding people similarly dedicated to the dream all over the world. We hold ourselves to high standards in every material process and person that plays a part in our work and we embrace difference by design because diverse perspectives are at the heart of creativity. We find brilliance in the intersections—of beauty and function of heritage and innovation of accessibility and aspiration—which is how we break through with magic and logic in our culture and our craft. The result is that we stand taller together. Tapestry elevates the best in our people and brands. We use our collective strengths to move our customers and empower our communities to make the fashion industry sustainable and to build a house that’s equitable inclusive and diverse. Individually our brands are iconic. Together we can stretch what’s possible.

Why Work With Us

We believe that difference sparks brilliance so we welcome people and ideas from everywhere to join us in stretching what’s possible. At Tapestry being true to yourself is core to who we are. When each of us brings our individuality to our collective ambition our creativity is unleashed.
