Katie Holmes Ties Up With Armani

Katie Holmes for Armani — the actress will design her own line of clothing for the world-famous fashion house, OK! reports.
She will reportedly start with a collection for toddlers in spring 2009. “The first clothes will all be things she could imagine SURI wearing,” a source tells the mag. It will be followed by a collection for older children that fall, then a handbag line for women by fall 2010.

“The Katie Holmes for Armani collection will be comparable in price to the Armani ready-to-wear line,” says the OK! source. “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.”

Don’t expect her to turn her back on movie making, “Katie’s dedication to fashion does not mean she’s given up her acting career,” the source adds. “She definitely wants to continue with that too, but right now this is her priority.” [Source]
