About Banana Republic
Although Banana Republic was founded on its own, it has been a part of Gap, Inc. for almost as many years as it has been in business. The original Banana Republic was founded in 1978, but Gap Inc. acquired it in 1983. For anyone who was around and shopping back in those days, they may recall the original safari themed store, which was replaced by a more upscale and posh approach once it became part of the Gap line.
Along with the original safari theme, the image came complete with travel inspired back stories and décor in the store that included large taxidermy jungle animals and Jeeps. For years, though, the image has been refined, crisp, clean, and modern but elegant and simplistic. Through the years the stores have continued to find steady growth with its first location outside North America occurring in Tokyo in 2005.

Shoppers no longer have to push past safari Jeeps to shop from the rack. The look today is smart and sophisticated while retaining a youthful look. Departments in Banana Republic include:
- Men
- Men’s Big & Tall
- Women
- Petites

There are plenty of fabulous new and classic looks from each of these departments, but here are some of the current best sellers you may find while shopping Banana Republic:
- Women’s Piped Pink Cotton Blazer -- Nothing is more classic and attractive than the women’s blazer. This version from Banana Republic makes professional and clean somehow still sexy, sassy, and fun. This style comes with long sleeves and a notch collar as well as a single button closure and front patch pockets. It’s also fully lined, making it perfect for career apparel.

Some of the best fashion craftsmanship these days comes from the Heritage Collection from Banana Republic.
- Kate Pump -- Available in three rich colors, including sahara, black, and flush, the Kate pump is elegant yet still flirty. This stunning and dramatic professional pump is 100% leather or suede, depending on your color choice. Even with a 4-inch heel and half- inch platform, women will love the way they feel. The breathable lining and memory foam cushioning for the insole make it easy to wear all day.

This look is only available for a limited time, however, so make it a point to take a look and shop while you still have the chance.
