About the brand
3.1 Phillip Lim debuted at New York Fashion Week in 2005, born from a friendship between founders Phillip Lim and Wen Zhou, both 31 years old at the time (hence the brand name). The designer and entrepreneur were pioneers in the accessible luxury space, with the goal of bringing an innovative, elevated, and chic wardrobe to the modern global citizen. The brand quickly expanded from its initial women's collection to include menswear, accessories, and footwear, establishing a presence in multiple countries including the US, China, Japan, and South Korea. Throughout its journey, 3.1 Phillip Lim has built a reputation for marrying contemporary aesthetics with effortless elegance, creating pieces that blend edgy sophistication with subtle romanticism. The brand's philosophy centers on "classic with a twist" designs that offer versatility and functionality for real-world wear. With community and sustainability at the forefront, 3.1 Phillip Lim continues to serve as a resilient, independent leader in American fashion, building meaningful connections between fashion, art, community, and culture.
