History

The concept for Brighton began when founders Terri Kravitz and Jerry Kohl opened their first specialty retail store. In 1991, Kravitz and Kohl launched Brighton Collectibles with a single collection of belts. Over time, Brighton has expanded their range of products to include accessories, footwear, luggage, and home accessories in its home line. [1]

In 2007, the company won a case before the U.S. Supreme Court to allow price floors in Leegin Creative Leather Products, Inc. v. PSKS, Inc . [2] , which addressed the legality of minimum resale price maintenance.
