Chico's is a Florida-based company specializing in convenient, colorful comfortable women's clothes, from elegant slacks to fun, embroidered tees and tanks. Chico's bucks the industry standard when it comes to sizing. A standard 4/6 size would translate to a size zero in the Chico line. All told, Chico's runs more that 740 women's clothing shops around the US, Puerto Rico, and the US Virgin Islands. The company opened in 1983 as a small outlet in the town of Sanibel Island, Florida. Founders Helene and Marvin Gralnick won people over with their comfortable sweaters and curious folk-art creations, which drew from a Mexican sensibility. Today, the company is headquartered in Fort Myers, Florida, and Chico's regularly churns out unique, stylized accessories and apparel for woman of every size and shape. Chico's prides itself on delivering fashion that's comfortable. Many skirts and jackets come untailored. Elastic waists ensure easy fitting and comfort. Finally, the company markets an exclusive line of wrinkle free gear--pants, blouses, and casual jackets that are perfect for traveling and packing. Even Chico's dresses and trendy pieces like gaucho pants are easy to wear and easy to travel with. Chico's also sells hats, shoes, belts, bags and watches to complete the look. Another bonus of Chico's is that you can find unique sizes and styles through this outlet. Chico's line of clothing draws upon inspiration from numerous world cultures, ensuring that these clothes always offer a sense of fun and excitement. From ethnic-inspired jewelry to embellished linen and denim, Chico's clothes are ideal for those who want to look stylish and innovative, but without compromising comfort.
