The Story of Lilly Pulitzer

The sunniest days of people’s lives are spent in Lilly Pulitzer.
When 21-year-old Lilly eloped with Peter Pulitzer, they escaped the hustle and bustle of New York City for the sun and sand of Florida. In the shadow of Peter's citrus groves, Lilly opened a juice stand. To disguise the juice stains on her clothing, she had a sleeveless dress made from colorfully-printed cotton. The classic shift dress shot to international fame and demand when Lilly's old schoolmate Jacqueline Kennedy, now the First Lady, appeared on a LIFE magazine cover wearing a "Lilly" dress, the brand's popularity took off.
We invite you to step inside and experience the bright, hand-painted world and beautiful patterns of the only stand-alone Lilly Pulitzer® boutique in northern Florida. Explore the gorgeous range of products for women and girls including signature dresses, footwear, accessories, yoga and swimwear, all inspired by the beach resort lifestyle.
