We all know of Banana Republic as being a great place to shop for close, but soon it will also become another venue for buying jewelry. Word has it that the company will be teaming up with Chan Luu to design a jewelry collection that will feature limited edition bracelets, which launched on May 20th at the San Francisco Banana Republic accessories-only concept store. This is the first time that the company has worked with a jewelry designer for the development of a special collection.

The collection of jewelry will showcase Chan Luu’s signature style, which means there will be custom-dyed threat and leather with original semi-precious stones, sterling silver or gold. There will be 17 pieces with different styles and colors. The price range for the bracelets is set between $95 and $225.

You can find the collection being sold exclusively at Edition, their concept store in San Francisco, after which it will be available in select stores around Japan, North America and Canada beginning on August 10th.

“We are thrilled to announce our first partnership with a world-class jewelry designer,” said Simon Kneen, Creative Director and EVP of Design. “I’m excited to offer Banana Republic customers Chan Luu’s signature interpretation of Banana Republic’s effortless style aesthetic. Our brand is a great destination for jewelry so this adds a little something special into our already-exciting fall jewelry collection.”

Chan Luu is also ecstatic about working with Banana Republic, saying “It is such a pleasure for me to collaborate with Banana Republic, a classic brand whose timeless collections provide the perfect canvas for my own. What makes our partnership even more extraordinary is our shared belief in celebrating the power of personal expression.”
