Welcome to Dress for Success Greater New York City

We are the leading resource for advancing women in the workplace across the five boroughs. Our purpose is to empower women to achieve economic mobility by providing a network of support, workplace attire, and development skills and tools for success.


We believe that confidence is key to unlocking opportunity. When a woman is ready to move forward, opportunity should be accessible, timely, and within reach.  For nearly 30 years, Dress for Success has empowered women to achieve economic mobility. This legacy of impact is strong, proven, and trusted.

Our new brand campaign marks the organization’s next chapter and evolution of its identity, purpose, and support programs to better align with the evolving needs and gaps facing women across the world’s workforce. It also signals the nonprofit’s recommitment to provide skills that help women thrive in work and in life, including programs supporting entrepreneurship, health and wellness, and financial education. The next chapter comes at a defining moment for women and work. The World Economic Forum projects that nearly 40 percent of core job skills will change by 2030, driven by technology, automation, and artificial intelligence.
