Fashion designer-author-model-NBA wife Jackie Christie is set to launch her new clothing line ‘Colored Girl’ on May 9.
The ’semi-fashion’ line is said to introduce eco-friendly organic 100 per cent organic cotton T-shirts and accessories initially, but will be followed up with a ‘cool’ denim collection.
“I design with my heart and emotions, whatever I am feeling. I start there and I move with the vibe, not against it,” said Christie. So there ought to be some motivation to be doing that? I’ll not be surprised if it’s coming from her dedicated husband NBA superstar Doug Christie and their infinite love foundation.
Incidentally, the proceeds from her clothing line as well as her new book (Proud to Be a Colored Girl) will go to support single mothers and impoverished families worldwide.
“There are so many causes I’m involved with my true mission in life is to lend support to the underprivileged, and suffering. To try to bring about positive change in not just the world, but also the environment. To be honest it is very difficult to narrow it down to just one cause,” explained Jackie Christie.
Colored Girl line-up is said to be available initially online (jackiechristie.com) and in Seattle, LA and Atlanta stores, but it will be a limited edition. Why so?
Jackie says this has been done deliberately to ensure that women will come together more to get her pieces if her designs are not widely available at first.
Something like the demand-supply game, I’d guess.
