J. C. Penney Company Inc and Kellwood Company announced the launch of Fabulosity, a complete fashion sportswear line designed by Kimora Lee Simmons to be sold exclusively at JCPenney. The new collection, created for JCPenney's Juniors customer, will debut in JCPenney stores and online at jcp.com in July, just in time for the Back-to-School season.
Inspired by the glamorous lifestyle of former runway model Kimora Lee Simmons, Fabulosity embodies a lifestyle of confidence, beauty and fashion sense, all at a smart price. Renowned for pioneering the introduction of glamour and feminine appeal to the urban brand category, Simmons has created a new line for JCPenney, which combines the two worlds she knows best -- high fashion and hip hop.
Fabulosity will be merchandised at JCPenney as an urban lifestyle offering in Juniors with a complete sportswear line featuring tees, knit tops and sweaters, jeans, skirts and dresses, as well as hoodies, jackets and outerwear.
“As the No. 1 department store for teens, JCPenney has a proven track record of delivering a wide array of must-have styles and brands to some of our most discriminating customers: teen girls,” said Ken Hicks, president and chief merchandising officer for JCPenney.
“We continue to build on this leadership with the launch of Fabulosity, which brings Kimora's popular charismatic personality and flair for fashion to our Juniors department, expanding our offering and deepening our emotional connection with our younger customers through a truly authentic brand."
