STARZ AND SAKS FIFTH AVENUE BRING STARZ ORIGINAL SERIES
“OUTLANDER” TO LIFE
“Outlander” Stars Caitriona Balfe and Sam Heughan Grace the Covers of
Saks Fifth Avenue’s Spring 2016 Magalog

Beverly Hills, Calif. – March 3, 2016 – Starz and luxury destination Saks Fifth Avenue announced today an exclusive partnership to showcase the lavish period costumes from the highly-anticipated second installment of STARZ Original series “Outlander.” The partnership will feature exclusive “Outlander”-curated windows on display from March 22nd through April 11th at Saks Fifth Avenue’s New York and Beverly Hills flagships in advance of the series’ April 9th premiere.

Saks Fifth Avenue will bring “Outlander” to life by creating six window vignettes capturing the 18th century within Saks’ New York flagship as well as two window vignettes in the Beverly Hills store. The windows will prominently feature, with a Saks twist, the original 1700s Parisian fashion costumes and props from the upcoming second installment of the hit series.

While the window vignettes display the costumes from the past, “Outlander” stars Sam Heughan and Caitriona Balfe are worlds away from corsets and crinolines in the Saks Fifth Avenue’s Spring 2016 Magalog. The actor and Golden Globe®-nominated actress each grace the covers of the luxury destination’s magalog, both sporting Gucci’s buzzed-about spring collection by Alessandro Michele. Saks Fifth Avenue’s 248-page Spring Magalog includes Saks’ SVP Fashion Director Roopal Patel’s spring “It List”, trend reports, designer spotlights, celebrity interviews and Saks Fifth Avenue’s favorite fashions of the season. It is available in-store as well as on saks.com.

“This exclusive partnership with Saks Fifth Avenue celebrates the stunning costumes from the series, while also featuring Caitriona and Sam in an amazing editorial spread as fashion and entertainment continue to intersect,” said Alison Hoffman, Executive Vice President of Marketing for Starz. “These windows are our gift to fans, giving them a peek into the second installment which features the finest 1700s Parisian fashion. This spectacle will certainly catch the eyes of passerby’s in New York and Beverly Hills.”

“Outlander is a drama both rich in romance and intrigue,” commented Roopal Patel, Senior Vice President, Fashion Director, Saks Fifth Avenue. “We are thrilled to celebrate the highly-anticipated second season by highlighting the stars in our Spring 2016 Magalog as well as exclusively showcasing the beautifully-designed costumes by Terry Dresbach and props from the series in our flagship windows for all to enjoy.”
