GiGi New York is a fresh addition to the fashion industry, representing the new style brand of Graphic Image, which has been a prominent figure in old-school education for over 40 years. Rooted in Melville, New York, Graphic Image, founded by Bennett Glazer and now managed by his son Tom Glazer and daughter Carol O' Connell, has a legacy of commitment to quality, value, function, and originality. The company has evolved from a diary business to the leading leather book-binder in the United States, featuring a diverse product range available in top retailers globally, including Bergdorf Goodman, Barneys New York, Neiman Marcus, and Harrods of London.
GiGi New York is set to embrace its own unique identity while incorporating the enduring traits of Graphic Image. With a focus on handbags, wallets, accessories for both men and women, the brand aims to explore new leathers, colors, and designs. Fueled by a commitment to its own distinct brand, GiGi is on a path to define its aesthetic, shaped by the wealth of experience gained through collaborations with discerning stores and designers worldwide.
This burgeoning brand has its roots in a rich heritage, sourcing top-tier leather from across the globe and crafting the majority of its products in its own factory in Long Island, New York. The insightful use of quality materials and a commitment to local manufacturing further accentuate the brand's ethos.
With its inception in 2011, GiGi New York is gearing up to make a mark in the fashion industry, displaying a blend of time-honored values and fresh perspectives, poised for potential funding opportunities and expansion in the United States.
