Walter Baker is not your typical designer.  A CPA, businessman, finance executive, husband and dad, Walter Baker designed and launched his eponymous New York label three decades ago. Featuring smartly edgy, sexy, boldly imagined, luxuriously constructed ready-to-wear and accessories with a distinctive New York mover and shaker vibe, Walter Baker looks were soon flying off shelves and racks at premier retailers around the world, including Saks Fifth Avenue, Bloomingdale’s, Nordstrom, Anthropologie, and more.

The core of Baker’s philosophy is a constant – trend-driving style, quality and top-shelf luxury at an approachable price point. “We’re a proudly modern contemporary label with a designer sensibility,” says Baker.

For 30 years, Baker’s unique combination of savvy business acumen and natural eye for style have allowed the brand to flourish as others have disappeared.

“I’m in the business of making women beautiful,” Baker says, “and just like with any business, what separates the winners from the losers in fashion is an ability to predict and adapt to change better and faster than your competition. Today’s luxury and modern contemporary consumers care about how their garments are made and its impact on communities and the planet.
