Fashion Merchandising

Just in time for back-to-school shopping, Paris Hilton’s, the author (now on the best seller list) , singer, perfume designer, movie star, and reality-TV star, now clothing designer, launched her clothing line on Thursday August 16th at Kistson, in Los Angeles, a boutique known for its celebrity clientel. From the numerous articles i read tons of people came out to check it out, Police and city workers were even called out to handle the crowds.

Hilton describes the collection as “really comfortable” and “really affordable” the line includes shoes, T-shirts and jeans, but the average person is likely to find it expensive and a take off of hello kitty. Tight jeans, colorful satin tops, and T-shirts make up the bulk of the pieces, with more to be released next month. Hilton said she spent a year submitting and approving designs.(maybe she did them while she was in jail….haha) The cheapest items are T-shirts for $34, some which bear Hilton’s lips or face, and the jeans seem to run to about $100. Not to bad.. but.. do u really want Paris hilton’s face all over your shirt?

Rumour has is that she will be releasing a hand bag line next…only time will tell. Its amazing what people with money can do… But at least Jennifer Lopez and Jessica Simpson do it with some class.
