Express is an American clothing company headquartered in Columbus, Ohio. As of August 2006, Express operates 700 stores in the United States, with annual net sales over $2 billion. Through the 1990s, Express was predominantly a women's clothing company. Express is well-known for their Editor Pants for women. With the pants success among women, Editor pants now come in a variety colors, styles, and lengths that is fit for any body type. Express also has now created three types of jeans: Stella, Eva, and Zelda. In 2001, the Structure brand (another Limited Brands division) was consolidated into the company as Express Men.

Structure, a line of wear-to-work and casual wear clothing for men, began in Express stores. By 1993, the line had become so popular that Limited Brands instituted it as an independent division. However, due to sagging sales, Limited Brands brought Structure back under Express management in 2001, making Express a dual-gender brand. At the same time, Express began closing under-performing stores and consolidating others into existing Express stores. In 2003, after the closing or re-branding of all Structure stores, the Structure brand name was sold to Sears.

Express clothes are designed at the Express Design Studio on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan's Flatiron District.

On May 15, 2007, Limited Brands announced its intent to sell a 67% stake in Express to an affiliate of private equity firm Golden Gate Capital. When the deal was completed, Golden Gate's stake in the company was 75% instead of the announced 67%.
