The "Mercedes-Benz Presents" program recognizes designers that demonstrate dedication to use of quality materials, unique style and innovative design. Trina Turk joins a prestigious list of "Mercedes-Benz Presents" designers including Monique Lhuillier, Badgley Mischka, Narciso Rodriguez, Red Carter and CHADO Ralph Rucci.
The Trina Turk collection showing at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Swim incorporates unique prints in a range of colors including sophisticated use of black and white to multi-colored patterns of free flowing shapes. A significant amount of emphasis and detail is placed on hardware throughout the collection going beyond the typical loops and rings to a sophisticated use of unique pieces in gold inspired by Trina Turk's signature patterns and her love of vintage jewelry and architecture. Trina Turk draws inspiration for this season's collection from the city of Acapulco in the 1960's & 1970's, an era known for glamorous getaways by Hollywood's rich and famous and the international jetset.
In addition to her runway show during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Swim, Trina will make a personal appearance on Saturday July 17th, 2010 from 4-6pm at her store located in the exclusive Bal Harbour Shops - one of only 5 standalone Trina Turk stores throughout the Country. Hosted by Amanda Fernandez-Leon, Jacquelynn Powers, Jilian Sanz and Sarah Arison, the latest styles from the Trina Turk pre fall and swim collections will be featured. A raffia clutch purse will be a special gift with any $300 purchase for this event.
"Trina Turk's signature patterns and designs are sophisticated yet fun and dynamic," said Lisa Holladay, manager of brand experience marketing for Mercedes-Benz USA. "Her swimsuits and clothing appeal to individuals who enjoy luxury and warm weather lifestyles, which is a natural fit with the newest Mercedes-Benz E-Class convertible in South Florida."
