Dillard's Launches New Capsule for Antonio Melani Private Brand

Department retailer Dillard’s is launching a new, limited-edition capsule of its Antonio Melani private brand. 

Jennifer Sumko for Antonio Melani features some of the style specialist’s favorite designs, patterns and colors with pieces in ladies’ apparel, footwear, children’s apparel, and swim as well as a complementing stationary notecard set developed in collaboration with Dogwood Hill. Sumko works with clients across the U.S. on design and style projects.

The new private label collection is available now at Dillard’s 247 stores as well as online.

“I am so grateful to have been able to create this Spring collection with Antonio Melani at Dillard’s,” said Jennifer Sumko. Every detail is a reflection of my love for patterns, textiles, bright colors, and special silhouettes. I often dress how I design and style interiors, and this collection is rooted in my love of vintage treasures often found while traveling. Favorite destinations that have inspired this spring collection include coastal spots where palm trees, sunshine, and whimsical gardens are plenty.”

Founded in 2001, Antonio Melani, Dillard’s largest ladies’ apparel brand, was originally a footwear brand and eventually extended to apparel and handbags.

“We have truly enjoyed working with Jen to bring her design inspiration to life in this amazing collection,” said Dillard’s VP Alexandra Dillard Lucie. “The preview of these beautiful pieces has already created a tremendous amount of buzz and excitement among Jen’s highly engaged audience and our Antonio Melani clients. This gorgeous, exclusive collection is a great way to celebrate spring at Dillard’s!"
