In honor of this year's theme, Gift It Forward, Talbots is introducing a limited-edition keepsake necklace, meant to be gifted as a symbol of gratitude for women who have helped them along the way. The necklace, encircled with shimmering flowers, retails for $99 with 100% of the net proceeds to benefit Dress for Success. Thank the woman who has helped guide you in your career, the friend who always gives you the best advice, your next-door neighbor who babysat so you could take a business call and the teacher who inspired you to pursue your dreams. This necklace is for her! Each necklace comes in a branded gift box with a personalized note card to "gift it forward."
"This year, because of the pandemic, it is critical that we all work together to help the women who have been disproportionally impacted during these challenging times," said Bill Miller, Talbots Senior Vice President of Brand Marketing. "We are proud to support Dress for Success for the 7th year and are grateful for our 9,000 Talbots associates and thousands of dedicated customers who have generously donated and supported this partnership. This year's Gift It Forward campaign is about acknowledging and thanking the women in your life who have helped you along the way and made a difference."
In March, Dress for Success will also launch its annual global campaign, Your Hour, Her Power®, in honor of Women's History Month and International Women's Day in partnership with O, The Oprah Magazine. This year's campaign will celebrate and highlight the impact and importance of female leadership at a time when we need it most. Talbots CEO, Lizanne Kindler, is among the women leaders being honored; she will be celebrated on March 8, International Women's Day. Participating companies are encouraging their employees and customers to donate the equivalent of one hour of their pay to help the mission of Dress for Success.
"We are extremely indebted to Talbots for their generosity and support," said Joi Gordon, CEO of Dress for Success Worldwide. "Their participation in the Your Hour, Her Power® campaign that celebrates global female leadership during Women's History Month is a powerful component of their commitment to our mission. We are especially thrilled to spotlight Talbot's CEO, Lizanne Kindler in the campaign."
