Betty White Launches Clothing Line
That Saturday Night Live stint with Jay-Z does not only increase the ratings, it also landed a new comedy series “Hot in Cleveland” for 88 year-old Betty White. The senior actress / comedienne is linking arms with Jerry Leigh Apparel, a clothing manufacturer from Van Nuys, California.
If you think you’ll see frilly dresses and laces and classic flowery looks from Betty White’s line due to her age… think again. Here are some preview on what’s coming your way, right from the… er… hood.
The collection doesn’t only have trendy graphic design which makes it ‘street’ instead of ‘sweet’, and get this: the hoodies, targeted at the young digital generation, feature washable earbuds and a jack to pluginto iPods and MP3 players.
We have mixed feelings about Betty’s line here because it looks more like fan art rather than a celebrity clothing line. While we’re trying so much not to hate it, we love the cause behind it. Portions of sales for the tees and hoodies will go to the Morris Animal Foundation, an animal health organization where Betty White serves as a trustee.
Okay we’ll spend $28 up to $48 to get the tees and hoodie. But we’ll only do it for the animals and because Betty White is such a darling.
Any thoughts?
