We all know Queen Latifah, born Dana Elaine Owens, as a musician, television and film actress, a label president, an author, model and entrepreneur. Now she’s added one more thing to her resume… clothing designer.
Queen Latifah is launching her own line of fashions, The Queen Collection, on the Home Shopping Network. Her brand will include apparel, denim, handbags and clip-on hair extensions, for women size 2 and up. “It’s for all sizes,” she told Women’s Wear Daily.
“The truth is, we all like to wear the same clothes. We all want to wear beautiful, fly clothes no matter what size you are,” she said. “For me it was important to match with a company that understood and respected that ideal.”
“I wanted my collection to reflect my personal style while giving women the tools to build a wardrobe they can feel good in,” Queen Latifah said. “I partnered with HSN because it’s the ideal platform to share my story and the stories of women who inspired me. I hope to instill confidence in hundreds of thousands of women across the country.”
The clothing will be priced under $100 and the handbags $170 to $300.
She will make her first appearance on HSN on August 27 and return in September to debut a custom line of Natural Wavy Clip-On hair extensions with the network.
“HSN and I have worked closely together to create a high quality hair product for women who are interested in reinventing their look,” continued Latifah. “Since my brand philosophy is about instilling confidence in women everywhere, I want to help them transform their look from head to toe.”
