The new carousel shop, curated by Venus Williams, will feature the launch of her exclusive collection with AQUA.
The Carousel, sponsored by Air France, promises a distinctive variety of products catering to all types of sports enthusiasts. The offerings are a blend of preppy athleisure, nostalgic retro apparel, chic accessories, and summer beauty. In addition to the AQUA X Venus Williams collection, the shop will include exclusives from brands such as Anine Bing, Longchamp, and Venus's own brands, Happy Viking and Asutra.
"Game On, curated by the iconic Venus Williams and powered by the esteemed Air France, reinforces Bloomingdale's position as a culturally relevant retailer at the forefront of what is new," shared Frank Berman, EVP CMO at Bloomingdale's. "The multicategory products featured within the Carousel are inspired by the summer's biggest events, and we're so excited for shoppers to discover new must-haves."
The shop will be anchored by the exclusive AQUA x Venus Williams collaboration; a chic, fun, and sporty line of athletic and ready-to-wear apparel and handbags inspired by Venus's infamous style both on and off the tennis court. The 36-piece collection consists of active sets, including hoodies, joggers, sports bras, skirts, leggings, tennis dresses and rompers. Shoppers can also look for statement pieces for everyday wear, with cashmere cardigans, polos, vests, a maxi dress, and more.
"As a longtime admirer of the brand, I am very excited to have my own exclusive AQUA collection at Bloomingdale's," said Venus Williams. "This collection is a special opportunity to draw inspiration from my personal style and create chic pieces that can empower women to feel great and look great for any occasion!"
