FORT WAYNE, Ind., March 09, 2017 -- Vera Bradley (Nasdaq:VRA), the iconic accessories and lifestyle brand, announced today the launch of its Summer 2017 collection. Like it’s Spring collection, Vera Bradley’s Summer collection recalls Cuba’s sights, sounds and cultures, creating a seamless transition between seasons.
For Summer 2017, Vera Bradley is venturing outside of Havana and exploring lush rain forests and sandy beaches. Warm, tropical climates and natural elements inspired this season’s choices, patterns and materials. The Summer Collection includes colors which are walking on the bright side, to capture the fun and travel of the season. “Vera Bradley always uses a pop of color or a fun print to make every day feel brighter. The Summer Collection is one of my favorites and filled with beautiful solutions!” said Co-Founder Barbara Baekgaard.
