Mizrahi was born in Brooklyn, New York and at the age of 15, he launched his own label, IS New York, with the help of a family friend. He attended the Parsons School of Design.
Mizrahi presented his first collection in 1987 at a trunk show held by famed New York department store Bergdorf Goodman. The line immediately earned praise from fashion editors, prompting several top retailers to place orders.In 1989 he discussed his designs in an interview with Elizabeth Cannon. He described them as "controlled and glamorous", "elegant", "distilled, refined", inspired by decadence, and by the diversity of New York City.
Mizrahi returned to fashion in 2002 when he began designing another diffusion collection, Isaac Mizrahi for Target. The line was an enormous hit, and soon spread to cover accessories, bedding, housewares, and pet products. The line was discontinued in 2008 as Mizrahi left for Liz Claiborne.
In 2010, Mizrahi was named a "Citizen of the Next Century" by Future-ish.
