Gwyneth Paltrow, Fashion Designer
Can you stand another post on Gwynnie? (Or on celebrity design?) Between GOOP and her awards appearances and Coldplay, Paltrow is constantly in the celeb world's news. Next up for her: a fashion line. Paltrow has collaborated on the designs for a capsule collection -- ZOEtee's Loves Gwyneth -- with the French label ZOEtee's, famous for soft jerseywear and versatile separates. The collection will be for autumn/winter2009.
According to ELLE UK, "Made up of jersey basics as well as some glam, 1970s-inspired looks and pieces influenced by masculine tailoring, the collection will be unveiled to the fashion press next week in London. ... With Gwyneth's fashion credentials we're expecting a luxe, sophisticated yet very wearable collection of instant hits."
Word is that the proceeds from every piece sold will be donated to a charity close to Paltrow's heart -- London's Kids Company, which which offers therapy, education, art, sports, and hot meals to at-risk children.
There's lots more about Paltrow in the March 2009 issue of ELLE UK. Here's a teaser.
