Nicole Richie is gearing up to expand her very successful House of Harlow 1960 line of accessories to include clothes and shoes. Nicole Richie herself confirmed the expansion into shoes in April, more information about the expanding line has been coming out.
Nicole recently shared with Singer22 that her new collection will be a “totally different line”.
“Doing a clothing line is really a full time job. I wanted to do what was closest to my heart and where my head was at was jewelry and accessories. I wear a ton of jewelry and artistically that was where I was feeling like I had a really clear idea of the designs that I wanted to do. That’s just where we started. Then I met up with Pascal and he is such a genius! It just felt like the perfect time and the perfect fit.”
Nicole shares that her initial accessories line was inspired by her own personal vintage collection, a lot of which she’d picked up while traveling: much was inspired by India and Africa. Nicole shares that she’s still in the middle of the design process for the shoe and clothing collection, aiming to pick the right fabrics.
As for accessories, we can expect something different from Nicole!
The second collection of House of Harlow will be out next year as well. I’m in the design process for that also. It’s a completely different direction and a completely different inspiration. It is focusing more on old English, equestrian, and more sophisticated looks. It is going to be a totally different line and I’m really excited about it!
The line is expected to be ready for Spring 2010.
