Actresses Penelope and Monica Cruz to design a collection for Mango |
Actress Penelope Cruz and her younger sister Monica will design a 25-piece autumn/winter 2007 collection for Spanish women’s fashion chain Mango. Penelope and Monica Cruz will also star in Mango’s fall advertising campaign, which will be shot next month by celebrated Spanish photographer Nico Bustos.
The new Mango line will consist of jackets, tops, T-shirts, pants and number of accessories. The new range is expected to be much larger than the current collection for Mango by model, actress and fashion designer Milla Jovovich.
For Monica Cruz it isn’t first step into fashion industry as she already designs handbags for Samantha Thavasa, which are sold in Penelope’s own Madrid-based store, Amarcord.
Penelope and Monica Cruz join such celebrities as Madonna, Lily Allen, Kylie Minogue and Kate Moss in a long line of stars turning their hand to fashion retailing.
