Vadisova Starting a Clothing Line

[etali]

Tennis player Vadisova is starting her own brand of clothing - everything from trainers and sportswear to dressy / fashion stuff.

I really don't get it when sports personalities make clothing brands - will many people really buy it because of the name? I might look at the sportswear, but beyond that I usually buy what looks good, and don't bother so much about pseudo 'designer' names like that.

What do other people think about famous people who aren't designers making labels?

well if the celebrity is famous for her/his style i'd be interested...but if the line obviously just carries that celebrity's name but none of her/his insights..i wouldnt even bother looking

Until recently I hadn't been interested in Vadisova except as a decent tennis player - I hadn't paid attention to their style at all, and never noticed them on morning TV gossip slots or anything.

That said, I'm probably very out of touch with celeb fashion - it could be they're a mini - icon to a lot of people.
