Paris' long awaited fashion debut

I've always been curious as to how a line of any kind of fashion designed by Paris Hilton would turn out. It seems that we'll soon be finding out.
WWD is reporting that Paris Hilton will be launching a line of high-end footwear. In a statement from Antebi Group (the New York based footwear manufacturing company that will be producing the shoes) Paris says, "My goal is to create a stylish and fun fashion line from head to toe."
At first I wondered why someone as undeniably stylish as Paris Hilton would choose a relativey unknown footwear company to produce her shoes, instead of a more, well, high-end fashion brand, but..."Antebi Group really understand my vision for this line as well as the needs for the fashion-forward young woman."
Paris is also collaborating with Dollhouse Denim to create a denim collection, including skinny jeans, wide-legs, shirts, dresses and more.
But don't expect prices of heiress proportions, “It’s completely affordable,” her licensing partner says. “The most expensive jean is $98 with the average being $78.” The line will debut at LA boutique Kitson, and then move on to Macy's and Nordstrom (whether or not the line will be available here in Australia, is still unkown...)

I'm very much looking forward to this shoe line, which will supposedly include platforms, wedges and stilettos, among other styles. As much as I disagree with some of Paris' lifestyle choices (they are her choices, and it's her life, after all), I do admire her effortless ability to always look stylish.


Catch.
