JCPenney to Carry Mango Line
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, News, Rumors, Sales,
Spanish-based clothing retailer Mango is moving into 600 JCPenney stores across the states by Fall 2010.
With both Charlotte Ronson and the Olsen twins stationing their own lines there, the department store seems to be making its way up the fashion industry ladder! While Mango has already set up 12 stand-alone shops in the US, it is nothing compared to its international number at 1,200; it is clear that the partnership is aimed at broadening its American presence.
Although the I Heart Ronson line isn’t too bad, there was nothing special about that line nor the Olsenboye range. This makes me wonder if Mango will be altering their clothes to fit the JCPenney look once they’re in the stores—the last time I ever step foot in the department store, I’m fairly sure I didn’t see any sweaters priced at $70.
Either way, I’m more concerned about having to prepare myself for a bombardment of Scarlett Johansson ads when I do my back-to-school shopping!

Another model catches the designing bug: Coca Rocha is set to launch her own clothing line.
The Canadian supermodel declared on her blog she plans to create her own range, and has even posted a picture of herself sketching some of the garments in her New York apartment.
She wrote on her blog: “I have decided to start my own line!”
The sketch - which shows a bracelet sleeved jacket being worn with a pencil skirt - suggests her collection will be true to her signature style of ladylike sophistication. The 21-year-old also wrote she needed some help: “I need your suggestions on what my line’s name should be. Please leave your comments, and I’ll be happy to look at your suggestions.”
Check out her video after the jump!

Jennifer Lopez Shelves Sweetface Line
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, News,
Jennifer Lopez now has one less thing to juggle in her life.
Six years after launching the Sweetface brand, the singer/dancer/actress/mother is putting the clothing line on hiatus. Although the company plans to “reintroduce the brand in the near future with new messaging points and an entirely new fashion point of view,” no target date has been announced.
Sweetface - a collection of high-end urban streetwear - is a spinoff of the star’s original line. Items from JLO by Jennifer Lopez can still be purchased outside the United States.
Right now, Lopez is working on her return to the big screen. She’s currently filming The Back-Up Plan (formerly titled Plan B), a romantic comedy about a woman who undergoes artificial insemination.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Fashion Designers, News, Girls, Women,
55-year-old designer Angela Missoni is looking to follow in the footsteps of her fashion counterparts and team up with a high street store to launch a new line of clothes aimed at teenage girls. According to Angela, “I would like to do something with H&M because I think it is a very powerful way to reach younger girls now.” Other H&M collaborators include Matthew Williamson, Comme des Garcons and Viktor and Rolf.
Angela Missoni also has no problem with models and actresses designing their own clothing collections, as long as they’re passionate about fashion. Making mention of Sienna Miller’s Twenty8Twelve label, Angela said: “These girls do pick up knowledge by being around fashion, so it doesn’t bother me if Sienna does her own range - she has a genuine passion for clothes, so it’s not just about her using her name.”
Other celebrities to have designed their own clothing lines for stores include Kate Moss, Madonna and Lily Allen.
