PBTEEN ANNOUNCES EXCLUSIVE COLLECTION WITH ICONIC FASHION DESIGNER ANNA SUI

Home Décor Collection Set to Launch in September 2017

SAN FRANCISCO--()--PBteen, a member of the Williams-Sonoma, Inc. (NYSE:WSM) portfolio of brands, today announced an exclusive home décor partnership with Anna Sui, the iconic fashion designer known for her creative ingenuity and unparalleled originality. Available for purchase in September 2017, the Anna Sui for PBteen collection offers a romantic yet free-spirited aesthetic across a range of home décor products including furniture, bedding, and decorative accessories, designed to transform any bedroom into a creative and captivating expression of personal style. The Anna Sui for PBteen collection is inspired by Sui’s personal teenage bedroom, and features her favorite signature prints from past Anna Sui Spring and Fall collections.

“I’m so excited about my new collaboration with PBteen. It truly features all the things I loved growing up…and still do! I created two different looks. One is based on the art nouveau feel of my boutiques, and the other one is inspired by the chinoiserie style you’d find in my own apartment.” Anna Sui.

“Anna Sui’s iconic style and longstanding reputation as an admired designer and trendsetter made her a natural partner for PBteen,” said Jennifer Kellor, President, PBteen. “This collection reflects Anna’s vibrancy and spirit, mixing vintage styles with her signature print and pattern.”

The Anna Sui for PBteen capsule collection will be available in September 2017 in PBteen stores and online at PBteen.com. Be the first to know when the collection launches by signing up at pbteen.com/annasui.
