About Trina Turk:

Inspired by the multicultural mix, architecture, and landscape of Los Angeles and California, The Trina Turk Collection is full of the Season's most casually sophisticated - and "must have" silhouettes. Trina's philosophy is to create wearable, optimistic fashion that incorporates the best aspects of classic American sportswear. The collection has become known for an amazing pant fit and gorgeous signature prints.

California native Trina Turk (who learned to sew at age 11) designed for contemporary and sportswear lines before debuting her own label in 1995. Her collection is inspired by L.A.'s architecture and multicultural heritage along with the desert's poolside lifestyle, which led to a swimwear line featuring fun prints and flattering shapes.
