Thalía is back on the fashion scene, although this time not as an inspiring designer, but as a muse for the new line.

“This is a collection dedicated to my Mexico, my people. I am proud to be the driving force of inspiration that transcends and goes beyond a simple garment,” said Mexican superstar in a video screened on Tuesday night during the press presentation Netherlands online Chain Store C&A.

“This collection is a mix of trends inspired by my tours, my people, in the 90s, blending rock, the grunge, urban,” said the singer and actress.

The line, which goes on sale on Friday, will be available only in the Mexican branch of C&A.

Under the name C&A inspirado en Thalía, the autumn-winter collection includes pieces in five trends, mixing rock, grunge style and bohemian silhouettes of the 20s, 70s and 90s.

It includes pieces made in processed denim finishes, tailoring casual and romantic clothes covered with fliers, and is dominated by neutral tones, brown, brown and green. It also has floral accessories, studs and chains.

It is not the first time that the European chain bet this type of strategy. Last year we launched a collection inspired by the singer Fergie.

Thalía, who has tried her luck as a designer of a line for the U.S. chain K-Mart, only provided some ideas for the development of the new collection.

“These are harsh contrasts with trends for us powerful women, warrior leaders,” noted the former soap opera star.

The singer, who will star in the online advertising campaign, noted that it includes “detail men know that women absorb the most sexy.” Some of them are inspired by the military legacy of the 20′s to which he added “pat glamorous” as sequins and touches of silver.

The price of the Jaguar was US$72,000 and the price of the ThunderBird was US$90,000, making a total investment of US$162,000. The couple was spotted later enjoying of their first trip on the Jaguar.

The Robin Hood Foundation gala, Wall Street’s largest single-evening fundraising event, raised a record of more than US$88-million at a dinner this week to feed and clothe the city’s destitute. The sum, donated by more than 3,600 attendees, including celebrities such as Uma Thurman, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas, as well as executives at Wall Street banks, hedge funds and private-equity companies, exceeded last year’s record of US$72.7-million. Pledges were still coming in, said David Saltzman, the nonprofit’s co-founder and executive director. Hedge fund managers are among the core supporters of Robin Hood, the brainchild of Paul Tudor Jones II, chairman of Tudor Investment Corp. The foundation raises money for 200 of New York’s poverty-fighting organizations. Itsboard– which includes Mr. Jones, Green-light Capital’s David Einhorn, S.A.C. Capital Advisors LP’s Steven A. Cohen, film producer Harvey Weinstein and actor Gwyneth Paltrow — covers the gala’s cost so that all proceeds go to the beneficiaries.
