The number of celebrity designers out there with their own fashion lines is always flowing with the Hollywood world. For instance, it seems like a rite of passage for “stars” like Jersey Shore’s Snooki to announce at a fashion event that she would love to design her own fashion line. I wish I was joking. This is the problem with fashion these days, but fortunately, there are other celebrity designers doing good things. Here’s a few of them:
Victoria Beckham – Victoria Beckham, former Spice Girl and wife of soccer star David Beckham, has made quite the name for herself in the fashion world over the last decade. Since stepping out as David’s wife, her style has been effortless, so it would seem like a natural progression for Victoria to start her own fashion line. This year, she recently implied that she is ditching her obsession with Hermes Birkin bags for her own line of western style handbags, along with a plethora of clothing and other accessories. Fun fact: Her son Romeo is devising his own brand of designer sunglasses for kids.
The Olsen Twins – Although Mary-Kate and Ashley will most likely always be remembered for their role on the seminal family sitcom Full House, these twenty-somethings have definitely found themselves a niche in the fashion world. The girls have begun a line of clothing called The Row, which aims itself at a higher quality, luxury line of clothing. With a sharp focus on tailoring (learned while in NYU’s fashion department no doubt) and the fit of sleek clothing, the Olsen twins certainly have a future in the fashion universe.
Justin Timberlake – For a man who can act and sing effortlessly, Justin Timberlake has certainly found more than a few talents, including the ability to look sharp all of the time. His work as a designer with William Rast – a brand started with best friend Trace Ayala – has produced some of the finest jeans seen this side of the Atlantic. The price is a bit steep at $200, but you’ll never look better in a pair of denims.
