When You Can't Sell Concerts…

Filed under: Avril Lavigne > Canadialand > Fashion Smashion

The Kohl Corp (who????) must be in the crapper, because they've resorted to teaming up with April Lavigne to launch her own "rocker" inspired clothing line to come out this July.

April's line will be called Abbey Dawn, and it will be aimed towards the tween market.

You know, cuz she's such a great role model!

The brand will be introduced this summer for back-to-school shoppers, and will feature new collections every 60 days.

The clothes are set to be designed to Avril's taste. In other words: she's not designing that shit herself!

They will include "a lot of hot pinks and blacks and stars and purple and zebra," says Lavigne. "Basically, everything I wear. I have a very particular style. I actually am the designer. What's really important to me is that everything fits well and is well-made, so I try everything on and approve it all. I want it to be available to a lot of girls, and I want it to be affordable."

Liar liar pants on fire!

The line is expected to retail from $24 to $48 and will also include jewelry and other items to be added later on.

Will they be giving away free Avril concert tix when you purchase some of her clothes???

They should!

Actually, you need to be corrected on this one, Perez. It's the Kohl's Corporation. And it's not a bad thing, either. Vera Wang launched a line for them last year. They have also license Dana Buchman (Liz Claiborne) as well. It's a mass retail store. It's no different than Madonna doing a line for H&M when you think about it.

You've never heard of Kohl's? It's a VERY low end dept. store.

I'm presuming "The Kohl Corp" means Kohls. You arrogant ass. Not in the crapper — it's a middle income store. Similiar to Target but with only home goods and clothing.

I like Avril! I am going to see her concert tonight in Victoria and actually I had a hard time getting tickets because it sold out. How do you not know what Kohls is? Don't you have anything better to write about than what Avril and Deryk are doing? If you hate them so much then stop writing about them!

by the way, it's avril lavigne, not april lavigne
Jess says – reply to this

71

Kohls really isn't that bad. Sorry not everyone can shop like the people on her e seem to. Labels and stores aren't everything, FYI. And I give credit to Avril for actually doing something with her life and trying something. So what, she's more successful than a lot of people.

Guess what 'Crystal'? Her Kingston, Ontario show sold out in a few hours. So shut your damn mouth… And calling them 'hasbeens', sweetie? Even if Avril and Sum 41 were hasbeens, you wish you could be them.

And what she wears is perfectly fine, compared to you stupid criticizing lemmings floowoing the words of a poor jackass who keeps concentrating on Avril Lavigne. Perez, get some more stuff and stop trashing on her. No, better yet, cut off your damn fingers and stop typing crap about celebrities… I'm just waiting for the day that someone starts a website talking/gossiping about you.

Enjoy.

79

Her show sales are not suffering as much as you make it seem. I paid $150 a peice for my Avril tickets. Some of her shows are already sold out. Avril being with Deryck has nothing to do with Sum41's tour sales. If anything she got MORE people to like Sum 41. Regardining her clothing line: Don't hate on that. You KNOW when Avril came out she started a major clothing trend. So her new line is a good idea. And at least it's being sold for a reasonable price. Start posting things in a more positive way and make the world a brighter place

What she has on can be found at any Wal Mart…. She needs some kind of logo….The stripes are not original and the stuff that is going to be made can be found in any number of clothing lines right now.

Someone mentioned Hot Topic, she'd probably do better selling it there…I can't imagine Kohl's selling anything she would wear!

As for her concert sales, she SUCKS live. I've never seen her live personally, but I've seen her perform live on tv. I'll admit that I used to be a fan of her music back in the day, and she sounds decent on her cd's…but they must do some serious work (like photoshop, but for sound) on her tracks! Nobody wants to listen to her sing live, I'd rather listen to pretty much anything. Sum 41 is a one-hit wonder that most people have never heard of (at least in the US, I dunno about Canada) so of course their tix aren't selling. If I'm gonna pay to see a concert, it has to be someone who has a lot of songs that I know and can actually sing live.

87

Hell YEAH!!! I have ALWAYZ wanted to have my own clothing line and here it iz, BITCHES!! Now I won't have to fight my way thru Hot Topik if I want 2 totally ROCK some like, serious PUNK CLOTHES!!! Itz gonna have SKULLS and it's gonna be PINK and itz gonna rock as HARD as I DO! I might even put SAFETY PINS in stuff to make it even MORE hard core! I hope ALL of my fanz totally rock the Avril look at my concerts. How bitchin would that be if I looked out at the audience and all the tweens are wearing my crap! TAKE THAT, Hot Topik! See what happens when u don't hire a sweet 13 year old (me) as SEASONAL HELP at CHRISTMAS? I'm still bummed I didn't get that job because I REALLY could've used that discount. Now ALL the cool kids are gonna go to KOHLS to get my shit instead of YOUR STORE! REVENGE IS SWEET…AND IT'S ALL MINE.

1. Kohl's is a great company.

You give gay people a bad name and how can someone like you be so gay and not have any clothing sense, hell you look like your blind mother picked out everything. For all your bitching and whining, but for your web site, you would be one of those homeless older children living on the streets, poor streets!
