There's money in fashion. Lots of money.
Several news reports (here and here) are revealing that Jessica Simpson's clothes made $750 Million dollars last year and her company is expected to gross over one BILLION dollars next year. Wow, that's a lot of money.
Simpson's company sells a wide range of goods, from junior sportswear and dresses to handbags, fashion jewelry, intimate apparel and fragrances. Over 20 licensing agreements have been signed to produce Jessica Simpson merchandise, with home furnishings, cosmetics and men’s wear planned for the future.
I personally have a soft spot in my closet for Jessica's clothes because her style appeals to me and my all-time favorite dress is from her collection. In case you forgot, here's what it looks like:
Do you have anything from her collection? What do you think of it?
I like her line too ... It has great items and wallet friendly too. I am not surprised that she is doing so well. The dress you are wearing is such a timeless piece. And I like the yellow belt on it :)

ReplyDeleteI always want to buy some of her pumps when I pass them in the mall but I never have. I have heard her jeans are awesome though and that dress you have is just sooooo cute :)

I have had a couple of her shoes (I think I still have one pair), and I've seen lots of her clothes in the consignment stores.
ReplyDeleteI love that dress on you, both the fit and the pattern!!
ReplyDeleteI bought a wool fitted fancy coat a few years ago that was a Jessica Simpson and I loved it, although it was offwhite and the color did nothing for me so i sold it at a consignment store.. better than leave it sit in my closet all by its self... her stuff is cute for sure!!!
and talk about making da money!! OIY I am in the wrong business... LOL
I didn't even know that she designs clothes! But I like what I'm seeing from the website. I think I would buy some stuff if they would sell them in germany.
ReplyDeleteI don't have anything from her collection, but I would to own something someday. I think she has great style.
ReplyDeleteWow! That's definitely a lot of money... amazing. I have a pair of red heels from her collection. I've had them for years and just love them!

I love that dress. I have a soft spot for houndstooth print.
ReplyDeleteI've tried a few of her shoes, but I'm a little stiletto phobic :)
