This should have happened like 2,000 years ago. I’ve been waiting. Anyway, Katie Holmes is finally inspired by her two-year-old daughter Suri to team up with Armani to launch an apparel collection for toddlers.
OK! Magazine has reported that Katie’s first collection will be out as early as Spring 2009. Suri donned a polka dot dress designed by Holmes last year.
“The Katie Holmes for Armani collection will be comparable in price to the Armani ready-to-wear line,” an industry source said. “It will be sold in stores like Saks, Barneys New York and Neiman Marcus. We’re talking very upscale: less expensive than Armani Privé but more than Armani Exchange. These are going to be very high-quality clothes. We’re not talking cheesy Jessica Simpson stuff.”
Saks, Barney’s New York and Neiman Marcus are some of the names expected to be carrying this hot new label, expected to be priced in the Armani ready-to-wear lines. This should be shocking, since Giorgio and the Cruises are close friends. Tom and Katie even wore Armani on their wedding day.
