This is fabulous news for clothing lovers everywhere!
Rebel Wilson is hooking up with plus-size fashion company (specializing in sizes 12-28) Torrid to launch her own capsule collection in time for the holidays later this year!
The Pitch Perfect star will collaborate on a 25-piece collection, including accessories, with prices ranging from $28 to $125.
Of course the actress will put several personal touches on the collaboration, including a koala-print tee as a tribute to her Australian roots, and a microphone-shaped hardware and charms as an ode to her love of the stage.
The collection is set to launch in November 2015, and will be available in Torrid stores and online.
Rebel’s super excited about the venture:
“I’ve had a ‘torrid’ affair with buying clothes all my life. I’ve never really felt like there’s a brand out there in the plus size world that is creating cool stuff, that fits well and is good quality yet affordable. It’s really only been in the last few years that I’ve seen companies try. So it was awesome to team with Torrid, who I think are doing such a great job in making plus size fashion relevant and dope. I’ve been loving designing the clothes for my capsule collection. I’ve been putting my unique style and personal loves into the clothing and literally can’t wait for the collection to launch!”
Torrid’s SVP of design, Liz Munoz, also praised the comedienne’s skills:
“Rebel’s got a natural instinct for design. She’s been totally hands-on throughout the process. She cares about every detail, down to the diamante rivet on the jeans. We love the results├óΓé¼┬ª she crushed it.”
Though the holiday line has yet to launch, there are already plans for a spring collection in 2016!
Yay! We can’t wait to see everything!
