Eva Herzigova

Some fashion news that people may be interested in, Eva Herzigova, a used-to-be-model born in Czechoslovakia, is making her second attempt at fashion designing. Around six years ago she made five collections of beachwear, but unfortunately she didn't have the management or financial back up that she needed to follow through with that project. "I had just become a mum with my little boy George, so being a model, mum and entrepreneur all at the same time was just too much," is what she said in the report that I read. And so this time she is going in with financial support from Laurent Milchior, who's family controls Etam, a British women's clothing retailer. They say that she will make a good fashion designer because she was a model and knows what women want to wear. Her line will be rather risque from what it sounds like. It was explained as "Brigitte Bardot inspired" and also explained as a take on "French romanticism". Eva herself said that "It's for a woman who is not afraid to show herself off". I chose to write about this story just becasue i think that it is kind of inspiring to know that there are people who keep trying and go for a second chance. Although she is well-known, it will be much easier for her to make this happen, but I admire her determination and I think that it is very important to have if you are going to start something like this. It's alot of work.
