Job Description

At Theory, we create clothes that matter, that empower and improve the way we live through exceptional fit, fabric, and style. In 1997, Theory was founded in New York on the simple idea that stretch fabrics in tailored clothing could change how we dress and live.

Two decades later, we continue to perfect our offering of elevated wardrobe essentials for the ambitious, urban man and woman.
