Libby Edelman rejoins Sam Edelman team

Libby Edelman is bringing her experience to the Sam Edelman footwear brand.

Libby Edelman is working once again with the Sam Edelman team in a new role to help drive the brand’s
marketing and licensing, as well as to provide a creative vision to the footwear’s evolution.

“Libby has been an integral part of the success of the Sam Edelman brand over the years, and we are thrilled to have her back on the team,” said Diane Sullivan, President and Chief Executive of US-based Brown Shoe Company, which owns the Sam Edelman brand.

For more than 30 years, Sam and Libby Edelman have worked as business partners. They launched the Esprit footwear business in 1983 and the Sam & Libby brand four year later.

Mrs Edelman was a senior fashion editor in the 1970s and early 1980s with magazines such as Harper’s Bazaar, Seventeen and Glamour, after which she became Director of Public Relations at Calvin Klein. After moving to California in 1983, she became President of the Esprit Children’s Division.
