The history of Talbots
Talbots was founded in 1947 by Rudolf and Nancy Talbot. Their very first store was located in Hingham, Massachusetts. The following year, the Talbots started a direct mail order business, which took off. When it had grown to five stores plus the catalog sales, they sold it to General Mills. Today, there are over 500 Talbots locations.
Talbots went through a bit of an identity crisis
Although you might think that clasically stylish clothing would never go out of style, Talbots found itself with a bit of a challenge on its hands. When they tried to expand their customer base to appeal to younger shoppers, the store nearly left behind its core customers.
The store, which was founded right after World War II, has a reputation for being classic and stylish, although that often means that 30-something shoppers see the store as the place their moms like to shop. Still, when the brand tried to go edgy and add pieces like stiletto shoes and bold statement jewelry, it clashed with the traditional wood and carpet decor of their stores.
The result? Their stock lost 90% of its value in just a decade. But recently, things have turned back around for the store. They went back to their roots and their identity - and got the shoppers they were looking for.
