Trina Turk x Banana Republic

Trina Turk x Banana Republic

A new summer capsule collection for Banana Republic launches on June 7th...Trina Turk!  It will be a Palm Springs inspired collection of swimwear, dresses, shorts, sunglasses, and accessories in colorful, playful prints.  The 60-piece collection will range in price from $34.50-$150...a steal compared to her designer line, and isn't that what these collaborations are all about!

"I decided early on that the Palm Springs "cocktails by the pool" lifestyle would be our key inspiration for the colors, styles, and prints." ~ Trina Turk interview

Take a look at photos of model Coco Rocha in the ad campaign for this collection...

Trina Turk, who owns a home in Palm Springs, states that her summer uniform is a "lightweight kaftan tunic, a wide brim hat, and sunglasses".  What a perfect summer collection to represent her style!  Below is a glimpse of her capsule collection with Banana Republic...

A sneak peek of the collection is available for purchase on Gilt today (although many have sold out)...
