Starbucks has teamed with renowned fashion designer Anna Sui to create a limited-edition range of merchandise to coincide with Christmas.
Designed exclusively for Starbucks, the chic Anna Sui Starbucks collection is now released in selected Starbucks stores in Hong Kong, China, Korea, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, Vietnam, Australia and New Zealand.
“At Starbucks, we have a history of innovative relationships with leading designers. Through our collaboration with Anna Sui, we are excited to offer our customers this exclusive and fashionable merchandise in our stores,” said Brady Brewer, senior VP of category brand management for Starbucks China and Asia Pacific Region.
“I drew inspiration for the collection from my New York boutique,” said Anna Sui, founder and designer of Anna Sui. “This is where my passions come to life, so I wanted to represent it in my designs for Starbucks.”
Sui’s penchant for design began at age four, when she started making her own clothes. Before the end of her senior year in high school, she was accepted to Parsons School of Design in New York City. In 1981, after only two years at Parsons, Sui launched her first design collection. Eleven years later, she opened her first flagship store and today, has more than 50 boutiques in eight countries and her collection is sold in 300 stores in more than 30 countries.
The Anna Sui Starbucks collection will be available in select Starbucks stores while supplies last and will include the following items:
- Starbucks + Anna Sui Boutique Double Wall Mug: A mug featuring Anna Sui’s iconic boutique artwork as well as a replica of a dress from her fashion line, inspired by Marie Antoinette.
- Anna Sui + Starbucks Tote Bag: This tote bag highlights Anna Sui’s instantly recognisable, signature style and is both practical and chic.
