Shiny Happy Prints

08.03.12

Internationally recognized style purveyor Roberta Freymann opened her first Roberta Roller Rabbit store in Orange County at Fashion Island in Newport Beach. And if you love cheerful, whimsical batik prints for the home, bedding and in fashion, this is your place.

The entire collection of Roberta Roller Rabbit was inspired by a piece of fabric in India that Roberta found depicting the fable of a magical rabbit. The line features colorful hand block printed kurtas, as well as bold print apparel for men, women and children, and home furnishings and accessories designed by Roberta with artisans in India. We love the loungewear, bikinis, quilts, and linens. Popular prints include graphics and florals named after people in Roberta’s life, and monkeys, elephants and fish reflecting Roberta’s love for children and the signature whimsical nature of the brand.

Roberta Roller Rabbit is filled delightful colors, prints and textures—from its signature sunny yellow walls that perfectly complement the relaxed, effortless and sophisticated lifestyle pieces in the collection.

Open 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Friday; 10 a.m.

to 7 p.m. Saturday; 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday.
949.718.0195.
