Naomi Campbell turns fashion designer

Supermodel Naomi Campbell has reportedly designed a line of jeans for Fiorucci, an Italian denim wear label, and will showcase her debut collection at the Milan Men’s Fashion Week. The 41-year-old catwalk queen’s choice of denim line is thought to be unusual as she is hardly ever seen wearing jeans. However, on the rare occasions Campbell does decide to wear jeans, she usually relies on her close designer pal Victoria Beckham to get her out of a style rut. "Victoria is amazing, a real sister. When I’m stuck in a rut, she’s always at the other end of the phone to send a pair of jeans," Campbell said. "They work wonders on the legs. I love her designs. I’m always in them. I’ve worked with Vivienne Westwood, Alexander McQueen and so many great designers. So I’m proud Victoria is up there too," she added. Fiorucci enjoyed huge success in the 70s and 80s and is now owned by Italian fashion giant Ittierre after financial and legal issues in the 90s.

Katie Holmes designing for working moms

Actress Katie Holmes and her business partner Jeanne Yang have created a fashion range under their banner Holmes & Yang for working mothers. "Sometimes when life gets really busy and you don’t want to have to think about what it is you’re going to wear, and you just want to have certain pieces that you know you can just depend on - what are those pieces? And so that was kind of our challenge," said Yang.

"Both of us are working moms, so we’re pretty busy, and, having a line, being moms and then having our careers is quite a lot. It’s so rare, unfortunately, that I actually know people who are into crafting and doing stuff like that," she added.
