Who doesn’t want a piece of Olivia’s style?

Words by Penny Goldstone

Ever since Olivia Palermo started a collaboration with US store Nordstrom, we’ve been dying for her to do something over here - damn you pesky shipping charges.

Now it looks like our prayers might have been answered, because she is designing a line with Banana Republic, and it’s very likely it’ll hit UK stores too.

Already an ambassador for the brand the fashion blogger will become a fully-fledged designer this September, when she launches her collection - just in time for New York Fashion Week.

In a statement, the street-style queen said, ‘We’re a great team. It’s truly been such a collaborative approach that reflects the synergy between my style and the brand.’

No sketches of the clothes have been released, but we can imagine Olivia’s signature style of bold prints and tailored basics will feature heavily.

We’ll be the first in line.
