Zac Posen to design for the girl on the street: introducing Z Spoke
November 18, 2009 by Ehmonie Hainey
Don’t you just love when designers launch lines for the everyday woman? We do. We’ve long been fans of Zac Posen but stuck to shopping only his accessories since his evening dresses reached exorbitant price levels. We’re happy to learn that Zac, according to Women’s Wear Daily, is launching a new lower-priced collection for spring called Z Spoke. The contemporary sportswear line which includes separates such as knits, cotton shirts, blazers and pleated khaki shorts will be exclusively sold through Saks Fifth Avenue, in 17 stores and online at Saks.com.
Z Spoke is said to represent Zac’s “new minimalist and utilitarian mind-set with a strong sportswear sensibility”. While Zac Posen’s high-end collection ranges from $900 to $12,000, and custom pieces reaching upwards of $20,000, the Z Spoke range will retail from $78 to $675 and includes everything from a basic cotton T-shirt to Posen’s signature knit dresses.
What do you think of the collection? Will you be buying Z Spoke?
