Financial Planning & Analysis – Theory
About Theory
At Theory, we create clothes that matter by empowering and improving the way we live through exceptional fit, fabric, and style. Founded in New York (1997), the brand was built on the belief that stretch fabrics in tailored clothing could transform how we dress. Today, we remain committed to refining our collection of elevated wardrobe essentials for ambitious, urban professionals—men and women alike.
The integrity of our process aligns as closely as our end product: from sourcing the world’s finest materials to handcrafting each item in our New York Meatpacking District atelier. Acquired by Fast Retailing (2004), Theory now operates 440 stores worldwide, blending a New York pedigree with a global mindset.
Our customers share our ambition—they dream big, achieve goals, and strive for perfection. And so do our clothes.
