Macy’s Launches YYIGAL, an Exclusive Limited-Time Collection by Designer Yigal Azrouel
The new line of architecturally feminine blouses, dresses and jackets
is available now at 149 Macy’s stores and on macys.com
NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Macy’s today announced the release of an exclusive, new collection by
famed designer Yigal Azrouel. YYIGAL, an architecturally-influenced,
limited-edition line, embodies the sophisticated and feminine spirit of
the Yigal Azrouel brand through signature tops, blouses, faux-leather
motorcycle jackets, intricate dresses and a statement jumpsuit. YYIGAL
is available at 149 Macy’s stores and on macys.com today.
“YYigal represents the effortless style, cool confidence and modern
sophistication that is at the core of my brand,” said Yigal Azrouel.
“From the intricate lace detailing and architectural silhouettes, to the
delicate draping that has become signature to my design; each piece was
created to stand out and make the wearer feel empowered. This is my
first collaboration with Macy’s, and they’ve been an incredible partner
in helping bring my point-of-view to their customers.”
The dynamic line taps into the core aesthetic of Yigal Azrouel’s design
DNA—as it combines delicate draping with expert construction, resulting
in a collection that is fresh and modern, but also exudes the
timelessness inherent in high style. Vivid prints are rendered in a
refined color palette of black, white and blush, and lace
embellishments, inserts and bodices are new and edgy interpretations of
the traditionally hyper-romantic and feminine fabric.
“Yigal Azrouel is an iconic New York designer known for his impeccable
attention to detail and designs that make women look and feel amazing,”
said Cassandra Jones, senior vice president of Macy’s Fashion. “He is a
master at drawing inspiration from his various interests in travel,
architecture, and of course, New York City, and creating breathtaking
clothing that speaks to the modern woman. We’re bringing this seasoned,
fashion-first practical approach to every day dressing to the Macy’s
customer in a new way through this collection, and she’s going to love
it.”
The pieces are reflective of Azrouel’s New York roots and global vision,
and thoroughly embody today’s woman and her life. The clothing is bold
and powerful, yet sophisticated and continental, and clean silhouettes
make for easy wearing, day-to-night dressing. The effortlessly cool
collection projects confidence, style and an ultra-chic urbane flare.
The exclusive, limited-edition collection retails between $69 and $199,
and is available in 149 Macy’s stores and on macys.com.
