Trina Turk
Trina Turk considers herself lucky on two counts. First because she knew at a fairly young age what she wanted to do when she grew up–to design clothing professionally–and second, because she is succeeding at doing it beyond her wildest dreams.
Born in California and raised there and in the state of Washington, her mother taught her to sew when Turk was just 11-years-old. She studied fashion design at the University of Washington and took her first job with the Seattle-based sportswear manufacturer, Britannia Jeans. Turk’s next stop was Los Angeles where she waded into a sea of 30 prints per season designing surfwear for Ocean Pacific.
Realizing that her resumé wasn’t likely to bring offers to design a line of contemporary clothing for women, Turk’s next step was the launch of her own business. With her husband, then a stylist, now photographer Jonathan Skow and production manager Lyne Lee as partners, Trina Turk, the company, was born in 1995. Trina’s most current honor was being awarded The Fashion Achievement at the LA Fashion Awards in 2005.
