Manager, Horse Show Retail Stylist
About the Company
Founded in 2009 by Audrey McLoghlin, Frank & Eileen set out to reinvent the women's button-up using the finest Italian fabrics often reserved for menswear. Named in honor of Audrey's beloved Irish grandparents, the brand has grown slowly and intentionally into a woman-owned, woman-led leader in sustainability and slow fashion. Frank & Eileen achieved B Corp certification in 2020 and holds the highest score for any woman-owned, globally recognized apparel brand in the United States. After seventeen years of steady growth through wholesale partnerships and direct-to-consumer e-commerce, the brand recently opened its first US flagship store—an Irish country house on Madison Avenue, NYC. Headquartered in sunny California, Frank & Eileen continues its legacy of using entrepreneurship as a force for good while delivering generationless style.
