opportunity to shop this iconic global brand while hearing from
Kathy directly about her most recent endeavor with outerwear."
Beginning at age 16, Kathy's fashion career began its runway
walk, gracing dozens of covers of the world's top magazines,
becoming a Supermodel and Fashion Icon. Kathy's solely owned
company, which began in 1993 at the family kitchen table, is at
number 19 worldwide, most successful women-owned design and
licensing firm in the world, according to License Global, which
named Kathy and Icon in the licensing industry. Earlier this year,
kathy Ireland® Worldwide (kiWW®), received honors
from WWD (Women's Wear Daily) as "today, it's (kiWW®) the
highest-ranking woman-owned licensing business in American
History." Billions of dollars in sales and over 25,000 SKUs are
attributed to kiWW® annually. Earlier this year,
kiWW® entered an agreement with Bagatelle International to
produce outwear, denim and dresses.
"We are delighted to launch our beautiful outerwear collection,
which is available only on HSN," says Kathy. "For decades, we've
carefully considered our distribution plans, and once we began our
collaboration with Bagatelle for outerwear, denim and special
occasion dressing, we believe that these exquisite clothes must be
talked about, shared and seen. HSN is the premier platform to share
the story around this line to the women we serve all over America.
Our new outerwear designs are so on trend and yet not trendy. Each
item is designed to celebrate the beauty of each woman, without
compromising quality. HSN aligns with our demand of inclusivity,
and we look forward to bringing our beautiful collections to this
wonderful journey, which enriches the lives of the women who love
HSN and our brand."
"We are thrilled to be launching kathy Ireland® Outerwear
on HSN," said Jon Carrasco and
Stephen Roseberry, Worldwide
Creative Director and President-Chief Marketing Officer, kathy
ireland® Worldwide, respectively. "The collection was designed and
curated to celebrate women of every size, shape, age and color.
Kathy's excitement is extraordinary, and we've never seen Kathy and
her team work harder to bring stellar apparel to the market in
order to share it with our
customers."
