GAP Clothing for Women

The GAP has long been a favorite of women who want a cool, casual, and classic style. Founded in 1969 in San Francisco by Donald Fisher and Doris F. Fisher, GAP, Inc. is one of the largest specialty apparel stores in the United States and houses the brands Banana Republic, Old Navy, Intermix, and Athleta. The GAP brand owns more than 3,727 stores internationally, 2,406 of which are in the United States.

What does the name GAP clothing mean?

The founders of the GAP took the store's name from the common phrase "the generation gap." This saying was increasing in use in the late 1960s in reference to the widening gulf between teens and young adults and their parents. As a personal shopper, Donald Fisher found it especially hard to find jeans in other apparel stores of the era, which is why the GAP began as a jeans-only retailer that also sold records. The original Fisher family still owns much of the company's stock. Donald Fisher was on the board of directors until his death in 2009. Doris Fisher remains on the board, along with their son, Robert J. Fisher, who acts as the company's chair.

What type of clothing does GAP sell?

Some of the words most often used to describe the items sold at the GAP include preppy, simple, and classic. If you prefer a jeans and T-shirt aesthetic, you've likely shopped at this retailer. When you visit the many locations across the country, you'll experience a selection of clothes for women and men, including the premium denim on which the GAP was founded. In addition to many sizes of different styles of denim, the GAP has a number of varying clothes staples for women, including sweaters, undergarments, tees, tanks, and activewear. For men, choices include sweaters, tees, khakis, and button-downs. Similarly, the GAP offers selections for children, too. The lived-in, casual look of the GAP's lines has made it one of the most iconic American brands, setting it above fast fashion retailers who offer similar pieces that don't feature the quality that the GAP is known for.

What special collections are available from the GAP?

The GAP frequently launches capsule collections that offer some of their familiar limited edition garments. For example, in 2017 the brand brought back 15 of their most iconic styles from the 1990s, one of their most successful decades. The ad campaign for this collection brought back some of the biggest superstars of the 1990s, including Naomi Campbell, and featured videos set to hits by 1990s group Color Me Badd.
