Taught to sew by her Japanese mother at the age of 11, California native Trina Turk has transformed her childhood passion into a fashion following.
For her Spring 2009 collection, Turk drew upon the beach & islands. The result: Fresh, modern & easy-to-wear styles in eye-popping colours that embody the tropical splendour & beauty of the coastal lifestyle.
Flush with recent investments from a private equity firm, Turk is among the few designers who have thriving plans. In addition to new store openings & a new line of outdoor upholstery fabrics, a wholesale men's line (a sub-brand aptly named Mr. Turk) & beachy items like sunglasses & swimwear are also in the works.
Shown: Flutter Sleeve Bonita Dress made of backgammon lace. Also available in Lemon (yellow).
