Amy Winehouse is a fashion designer. Amy Winehouse has just scored a deal with British label Fred Perry to collaborate on an upcoming line. This is an interesting time for fashion. First we have Whitney Port/LC designing, and we have the Kardashians, Lindsay Lohan and now Amy Wino (?) is lending her aesthetic eye to clothing?

more Amy after the hop…

What next, right? Well, WWD.com reports the decision was actually highly calculated by the Fred Perry team.

“Amy has been wearing Fred Perry for years, so we were aware she was a genuine fan of the brand,” said Richard Martin, Fred Perry’s marketing director, of the initial pursuit of Winehouse for the design gig. “Amy has a unique sense of style that reflects the brand’s own historical reference points.”

Her fashion line will consist of slim, thigh-skimming pencil skirts; capri pants, a mini bowling dress, and Fred Perry’s signature polo shirts.

Our only concern, Amy won’t be able to think outside her 60s era beehive/cat eye look. What do you think?
