Tuesday's Trend Report: Celebrity Designers


It only seems fitting to dedicate today's trend report to a topic swirling around NYFW - celebrity designers.  Kim Kardashian for Bebe,  Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen's line Row,  Victoria Beckham's  Collection Lindsay Lohan for Engurao and now...Madonna is creating a line for Macy's?!



Well sources from both Madonna and Macy's won't confirm anything just yet, but it looks promising.

Personally I am all about expressing yourself and your creativity through fashion (hence the blog, right?). However a part of me has little patience for celebrities using their status to get into the fashion game., especially after reading DELUXE. Wouldn't we all like to create our own line?

I do respect those celebs who are genuine fashionistas at heart like Mary Kate & Ashley, Victoria Beckham, Madonna and even Kim Kardashian.  Lindsay Lohan - well, that's another story.  It will be interesting to see how celebrity designers take an active roll in the fashion industry. Time will tell if this is just another trend. 

What do you think? 
And what celebrity designer do you respect the most?
