Taylor Momsen
The 16-year-old U.S actress and lead singer of band The Pretty Reckless, who has also been the face of British clothing store New Look, was picked as the perfect image for for the eighties inspired clothing.
On the fashion line, mainly run by 13-year-old Lourdes, and the inspiration behind it, she wrote last month on her blog: "I am totally obsessive about 80’s shorts… You know the kind that makes your butt look kinda big, with a grunge-looking shirt tucked in. It’s kinda nerdy but I love it. And the 80’s are another huge obsession of mine, which is totally amazingly awesome because Material Girl…HELLO! It’s like 80’s themed, which pretty much rocks, so yeah. I’m still in love with brogues or as some people call them “oxford shoes”. I haven’t found a good sandal so I’m on like a search right now."
But platinum blonde and gothic-styled Taylor, who created controversy when she admitted to carrying knives around with her and even on flights, may not have been Lourdes' first choice for her brand.
Apparently Agyness Deyn was the first on Madge's teenage daughter's wish list, as most of the collection was apparently inspired by the 27-year-old British-born model.
A source quoted by MailOnline, said: "Lourdes is a huge fan of Agyness. She thinks her Eighties retro style hits the perfect note and she has been using her photos as inspiration. Lourdes loves her hipster style and adopted her looks when she was designing the collection."
The collection for teenage girls, will include apparel, footwear, handbags, jewellery and accessories and is available only at US department store Macy's.
