This giant of European design started its journey in Bregenz, Austria. In 1950, Wolford was founded with the slogan "a company to produce stockings for women from pure silk and rayon”. It has become an internationally recognised fashion label with a broad portfolio. Wolford is a synonym for quality and luxury; it has been that way for decades and will stay that way for decades to come.
