Trina Turk

A genuine California local, Trina Turk is inspired by the Golden State’s multicultural mix, creativity, craftsmanship, architecture, and landscape – a synergy that permeates her contemporary, colorful aesthetic. Infused with bold signature prints and dynamic hues unique to each collection, Turk’s modern and optimistic outlook meld the best of classic American design with a California confidence, incorporating beautiful fabrics and impeccable quality for effortless élan and carefree glamour.

Founded in 1995 by Turk and her husband, photographer Jonathan Skow, as a women’s contemporary clothing line, TRINA TURK has evolved into an iconic lifestyle brand, celebrating California style with 11 annual collections of chic women’s ready-to-wear and accessories, plus swimwear, recreation/activewear, footwear, handbags, jewelry, a Mr Turk menswear line, and residential décor and textiles.

The couple split their time between two historic, mid-century marvels restored in Los Angeles’ creative enclave of Silver Lake and in Palm Springs, interspersed with travels up and down the coastline and around the world. A favorite pastime is vintage shopping and their educated collectors’ eyes discover inspiration in any new destination. They also share a keen passion for architectural preservation.

The TRINA TURK brand’s corporate headquarters, design and production are located in Alhambra, California. The first retail store opened in Palm Springs in 2002 and has since expanded to 11 signature boutiques.
