Designer Trina Turk loves sunglasses, sushi and Audrey Hepburn. In fact, Audrey Hepburn was a big inspiration on Los Angeles-based Turk in the early stages of her career. When creating a collection, this was her rule of thumb: If an item would fit into Hepburn's wardrobe, it would make the cut; if not, it was outta there. The rule worked. She is known for her colorful prints and fun designs. "Prints are fun and express something about a personality. They hold a very West Coast sensibility," the California native says. Her boutiques reflect her design sensibility- fun, playful, a bit retro and bright. In 2009 Trina Turk introduced an indoor/outdoor fabric line for Schumacher. The bright, cheery prints perfectly reflect Trina's clothing line. Trina said, “I always did color and prints in my apparel line and it seemed like a logical progression. Most of the prints we do are graphic and bold so they lend themselves to larger expanses of fabric.”
