Banana Republic and Trina Turk announce the debut of the Banana Republic Trina Turk Collection a limited-edition capsule featuring chic summer essentials inspired by the southern California lifestyle. The collection will be available for purchase in June and will be carried in Canadian stores as well as online at BananaRepublic.ca. I find myself continually inspired by the cool, modern vibe of southern California and I wanted to bring that spirit to Banana Republics summer collection, says Simon Kneen, creative director. Trinas signature prints are beloved and embody the aspirational Palm Springs lifestyle, so she was a natural partner for Banana Republics capsule collection this Summer. The nearly 60-piece collection of womens apparel and accessories features an array of summer must-haves in iconic Trina Turk prints, re-imagined in this exclusive capsule of collaborative designs. From flirty dresses to printed tunics and plush beach towels, items are perfect for the warm days ahead and can transition from deskside to poolside and everywhere in-between. When
we began working together on the collaboration, Simon and I decided early on that the Palm Springs cocktails by the pool lifestyle would be our key inspiration for the colours, styles, and prints says Turk. Founded in 1995, the Trina Turk brand includes womens ready-to-wear, Mr. Turk menswear, swim, homewares, handbags, and jewelry in seven namesake retail stores, a seasonal pop-up store in East Hampton, and one residential store in Palm Springs.
