Usher’s Clothing Line
Following in the footsteps of J-Lo, Gwen Stefani and Puff Daddy, Usher's the latest in a long line of celebrities to threaten launching clothing line.
The line will be styled on the formal design concepts of European runway designers such as Prada, Gucci, and Roberto Cavalli.
"You know what, to be perfectly honest with you, I'm really a suit man, if it's not Prada, it's Gucci, Roberto Cavalli. I'm really into Italian designers as well as American designers, as a matter of fact I'm heading in that direction," Femalefirst quoted him as saying.
Usher does not have a fixed date for the release of the line but has confirmed it will be out by 2006. Currently, the young sensation is on his way to reaching a personal goal to recreate an empire similar to that of Russell Simmons and Sean 'P Diddy' Combs.
"Look at the capabilities of Martha Stewart or Russell Simmons or Sean 'P Diddy' Combs or even 50 CENT with G-UNIT. Look at what they did with their licensing. This is my opportunity to do the same. Clothing and shoes are kind of the standard nowadays, so I'm trying to figure out how I can come at it from a different angle. Watches, clothes, perfume, cologne, facial and acne products. There are so many possibilities," Usher added.
