DesignPhilosophy
Anna Sui effortlessly mixes vintage style with her current cultural fixations, creating hip and exuberant designs. A fusion of fashion and functionality, the inspiration for the Anna Sui x Starbucks® Merchandise Collection came from the Anna Sui New York boutique – a place where many of Anna’s passions come to life.
“Aside from the fact that Starbucks is my go-to place for coffee and snacks, I really pursued this partnership because I consider this as a ‘designer’s dream’. Starbucks gave me an opportunity to design a product that I have no capability of doing,” says Anna Sui. “It is a wonderful learning experience for me while still being able to express the Anna Sui iconic brand.”
Past Designer Collaborations
Inspired by great design, Starbucks has a history of innovative partnerships with fashion’s elite. Over the years, Starbucks has collaborated with Christian Siriano, Jonathan Adler, Rodarte, Charlotte Ronson,Alice + Olivia and Stacey Bendet to bring designer products to customers in stores and online.
