VOGUE BUSINESS: Elie Tahari sets his succession plan
Elie Tahari, the Israeli-American fashion designer and founder of his eponymous New York label that became a sought-after staple for working women throughout the ’80s and ’90s, is ready to hand over the reins.
After celebrating his brand’s 50th anniversary last September, Tahari, now 73, is turning over control of his $1 billion company to his son, Jeremey Tahari, who will lead the Elie Tahari brand forward as CEO and creative director. Jeremey Tahari has been working alongside his father since he was 16 and launched his own streetwear brand, Anti, before spending time working in real estate.
“After 50 years of being in the business and dressing women, I decided that he’s ready,” says Elie Tahari over Zoom. “He’s got a good eye. He’s very ready to do it, and he’s taking over little by little.”
