Amy Winehouse for Fred Perry Clothing Line to be Released

By Georgia N. Tridenti


Singer Amy Winehouse, who died on July 23, have been working with British sportswear label Fred Perry on an eponymous range since 2010.

Following her unexpected death aged 27, the release of her future ranges - she had made three forthcoming choices up to and including autumn/winter 2012 - have been thrown in question, but her family have granted their blessing for the designs to be on sale.

In the week following the death of Winehouse on 23 July, her album Back to Black dived to the top of the charts while five of her singles got into the best 40. But market viewers questioned regardless of whether her apparel range would probably ever view the light of day.

Even though the selection was one of Winehouse's main projects within the last year, it had become as well part of her story of backslide and downfall. As soon as the line was first released in October 2010, she referred to it as "a living dream"; that very same month, in a interview with Harper's Bazaar, the pop artist appeared to deteriorate during the period of a Fred Perry photo-shoot, becoming "confused", "unsteady" and "just not ... present".

Winehouse's father, Mitch, mentioned in the statement: "When Fred Perry reached us to ask what we should would like to do with all the new collection it had been natural to continue. Amy loved concentrating on both collections and wants them to be made readily available. All the money we make and the monetary gift that Fred Perry gives goes straight to the Amy Winehouse Foundation that we are creating to aid children and young adults in her name."

This means her collections for the autumn/winter 2011 and spring/summer 2012 months is going to hit suppliers and online.

A spokesperson for Fred Perry asserted that Amy was "passionate and dedicated" towards collaboration, adding that "her signature design is obviously placed over each piece."
