The first store, originally called Free People, was located in a small space across the street from the University of Pennsylvania. Its mission was to provide second-hand clothing, furniture, jewelry and home décor for college-aged customers in a casual fun environment.
By the 1990’s, our original customer was entering a new life stage. She longed for a store to indulge her creative side. Dick, realizing this wasn't an isolated phenomenon, went on to build a lifestyle brand that catered to creative, educated and affluent 30-45 year-old women. Anthropologie was born and in 1992, the first standalone store opened in a refurbished automobile shop in Wayne, Pennsylvania. Anthropologie is a portal of discovery for our customer - offering her a shopping destination with a well-curated mix of clothing, accessories, gifts, and home décor that reflect her personal style and individual passions.
