Rachel Bilson - New Clothing Line "Edie Rose"

The fashion world is increasing more and more with celebrity designers, this time Rachel Bilson is getting in the game. She has partnered with DKNY Jeans and her line will debut this September.

'This line is my main focus right now' she said, ' I can't draw at all, so I won't be doing any sketches, but I am learning to sew. I think it's important to know more about the whole process of making clothes.'

"This is something that I have been interested in doing for such a long time," the actress says. "I was just waiting for the perfect opportunity for it to be done right." Rachel contacted the company and asked if they produce her collection. "Fans of The O.C. really like DKNY Jeans, and I know they make great stuff, so I thought it could be good," she explains.

The collection is comprised of 15 pieces, including jackets, tops, sweaters, jeans and dresses. The name Edie Rose is made from Edie, her grandmonther's name and Rose after a close family friend.

"I want people to see these clothes for what they are, not just another line designed by another celebrity," she says. "I want the line to be taken seriously." Every piece is priced under US$50 because "I also want to show people that you don't have to pay a million dollars for clothes that look good.”
