The brand, carried by 23 company-owned retail stores, also sells to independently owned shops and major department stores, such as Belk, Lord and Taylor, Nordstrom, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Neiman Marcus. Today, the company maintains 75 Lilly Pulitzer Signature Stores (also known as Via Shops). They contacted Pulitzer with the hopes of reviving the brand because "they just loved Lilly, their mothers and sisters loved Lilly, and they wanted to bring the line back", Pulitzer said. In 1993, the rights to the brand were purchased by Sugartown Worldwide, Inc. By 1984, Lilly closed down the entire clothing operation. Lilly later stated that the first shift dress Jackie was photographed in was made of kitchen curtains. The Jacqueline dress is one of Lilly Pulitzer's most successful styles. After Jackie was featured in Life wearing one of Lilly's shifts, many preppy ladies followed her lead. From the 1960s to the early 1980s, Pulitzer's bright, colorful clothes were very popular, worn by people such as former classmate Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and her daughter Caroline Kennedy and members of the Rockefeller, Vanderbilt and Whitney families. Over 85% of Pulitzer's prints were designed by Suzie Zuzek, the designer for Key West Hand Prints. The company's main factory was in Miami, Florida, and the fabrics were produced by the Key West Hand Print Fabrics company in Key West. In 1959, Pulitzer became president of her own company, Lilly Pulitzer, Inc. Eventually, she was selling more dresses than juice, and decided to focus on designing and selling what had become known as her "Lillys". She discovered that customers loved her dress, so she produced more to sell at her juice stand. Seeking to camouflage the juice stains, Lilly asked her dressmaker to design a dress that would camouflage the stains. While working at the stand, Pulitzer found that squeezing juice made a mess of her clothes. They owned several Florida orange groves and, with produce from these, she opened a fruit juice stand on Via Mizner in Palm Beach. Lilly and husband Herbert Pulitzer settled in Palm Beach, Florida, shortly after their marriage.
