EILEEN FISHER Launches the Foundation, the Solution to Simplifying Your Wardrobe for 2025

February 13, 2024

Today, sustainability pioneer; EILEEN FISHER; is debuting the Foundation, a system of thoughtfully designed seasonal and nonseasonal essentials that serve as the building blocks of your wardrobe. 

The brand has always been rooted in simple shapes and trusted fabrics, emphasizing versatile pieces that adapt to your body and lifestyle. The Foundation introduces the freedom of living with fewer pieces of clothing, encouraging consumers to buy better (as opposed to buying more) pieces that they’ll love and wear over and over again. Inclusive of underpinnings, tees, tops, shirts, pullovers, cardigans, bottoms, dresses, and accessories, the collection adds textures, colors, and fresh silhouettes that elevate your wardrobe.

“Having a wardrobe composed of simple, timeless shapes in fabrics and colors I love allows me to be comfortable and confident in myself—and free to focus on the important things in life. When you have the right clothing, less truly is more.”

- Eileen Fisher, Founder

As always, sustainability is at the forefront of EILEEN FISHER’s collections. Below are the ways the brand continues to prioritize responsible consumption through their newest collection.
