Celebrities In Fashion
Recent rumours have emerged that Rihanna is getting ready to launch a brand new luxury line with LVMH, a monster luxury conglomerate who owns power houses such as Louis Vuitton, Celine, Dior, Fendi, Kenzo and Marc Jacobs.
According to WWD, several sources confirm that the music star has had secret meetings with LVMH, which has already handpicked an internal team to work closely with Rihanna on this project. This will be the first new brand LVMH launches since Christian Lacroix in 1987.
This isn’t the first time @badgalriri ventures into fashion, other brands in her portfolio include the collab with active wear brand Puma, FENTY x PUMA and her own SAVAGE X FENTY
Other celebrity favorites that have preceded Rihanna’s footsteps are…
Victoria Beckham
Launched her eponymous fashion line in September 2008 and by the year 2011 it was one of the most well known brands after launching her diffusion line "Victoria by Victoria Beckham”. In 2018, the company reported a growth of 17% in sales despite a £10.2m operating loss.
PS: No, she will not be touring with the rest of the Spice girls in the 2019 UK tour (sad face)
Jessica Simpson
The most profitable of them all, she has been in the shoe business since 2006 when she made a collaboration with Nine West Co-founder Vince Camuto.
Jessica Simpson launched her brand with shoes at an affordable price. She has since branched out to include clothing and accessories sold in major department stores such as Macy’s, Lord & Taylor and Dillard’s.
