Kohl's Department Stores announced it's teaming up with Milly by Michelle Smith. Michelle Smith will be the sixth designer for the retailer's DesigNation limited-edition collection. As part of the Kohl's DesigNation concept featuring premier designer fashion based on international inspiration, the collection will draw creative influence from Smith's recent trip to Capri, Italy. The capsule collection features women's apparel and will be available exclusively at Kohl's and Kohls.com beginning Spring 2015.

"Spring is the perfect time to launch Milly for DesigNation to Kohl's customers. Milly designer Michelle Smith's collection will feature feminine designs that combine impeccable details and beautiful fabrics," said Kevin Mansell, Kohl's chairman, chief executive officer and president. "Michelle is a world class designer with an impressive background in designing luxury products and she is also a successful entrepreneurial mother that is known for putting family first. She personifies what is important to our customers, great quality, great design and great family values. "

Michelle Smith's contemporary designs have attracted a global following including trend-setting celebrity fans such as Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, Jennifer Lopez, Allison Williams, Lea Michele and Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge. The Milly for DesigNation collection offers a complete range of dresses, skirts and tops in custom prints and vibrant colors inspired by Capri's luscious landscapes and dazzling blue sea. Retail prices for the collection will start at $38.

"The picturesque, ancient resort island of Capri influenced my DesigNation collaboration with Kohl's," said Michelle Smith. "Capri's technicolor vistas, dynamic Mediterranean culture and signature Caprese style of effortlessly chic dressing (the Italians call it 'sprezzatura'!) were the perfect inspiration for this collection. Every collection I design is a personal extension of myself and my experiences. As the Milly by Michelle Smith collection defines luxurious, bold, feminine style, I'm thrilled to partner with Kohl's to offer an exclusive taste of 'La Dolce Vita' to women across the country."

Previous designers to collaborate with DesigNation include Narciso Rodriguez, Derek Lam, Peter Som and Elie Tahari among others. Kohl's DesigNation collections feature a different designer, marrying his or her aesthetic with influence from various global destinations. Kohl's will continue to introduce new brands and exclusive world-class partnerships that offer customers contemporary style at an affordable price.
