Madonna is the queen of reinvention, having survived decades in the music industry through her constant evolution. Her involvement and contribution to fashion has been highly influential over the years so it is no surprise that her latest project is her fashion line, suitably called Material Girl.
Her inspiration? Madonna’s daughter Lourdes Leon is the driving force behind the new line, which is to be sold exclusively at Macy’s stores. Lourdes has been involved with the project from the start and is helping in each design phase. Madonna describes the line as an ‘extension of her taste’ quoting that her and Lourdes ‘don’t generally disagree’ when it comes to clothing and styling.
Material Girl is a youthful collection, taking influence from the 80’s and punk rock. Madonna explains “combine a plaid or flannel with lace or rhinestones…mix and match textures and fabrics.” It’s all about layering and playing with fashion in an easy uncomplicated way.
There is a secret celebrity muse, who is yet to be revealed, but our guess is Gossip Girl star Taylor Momsen. We will wait and see when the line officially launches on August 3rd.
