Troubled songstress, Amy Winehouse, is putting herself back on the fashion map. It’s hard to believe that the singer, who serves as regular fodder for British tabloids, is only 26 and has already earned several Grammys. This October the singer will be adding designer to her list of titles as she launches a clothing collection for British hipster label, Fred Perry.
“Amy has been wearing Fred Perry for years, so we were are she was a genuine fan of the brand.” Explained Richard Martin, Fred Perry’s marketing director. “Amy has a unique sense of style that reflects the brand’s own historical reference points. She is a loyal fan of classic Fred Perry product, so that is what we’re focusing on in the designs we’ve been developing.”
Focusing more on clothing instead of Winehouse’s signature accessories, the Fred Perry and Amy Winehouse collaboration is said to be based around pieces such as gingham shirts and the Heritage jacket, a label classic.
If you’re looking to supplement your Winehouse look with some jewelry items, consider something understated but opulent, like diamond tennis bracelets or stacked bangles. They’d go great with the hipster look Winehouse has cultivated, while also matching the classic Fred Perry feel.
