It's a big year for Britney Spears. LATF USA honored the music icon at our 2018 Hollywood Beauty Awards with Fragrance of the Year for FANTASY IN BLOOM.
Generated by the momentum of her award-winning and record-breaking Las Vegas residency, "Britney: Piece of Me," and in anticipation of her upcoming tour, the multi-platinum, Grammy Award-winning pop icon is joining forces with global brand management and licensing company Epic Rights to develop and launch a line of high quality fashion and lifestyle branded products that reflect her personal sense of style, lifestyle, artistry, and creativity.
"I am excited to collaborate with Epic Rights to create a new contemporary lifestyle collection," said Britney Spears.
"We see this new lifestyle collection as Britney's next step in connecting with her legions of loyal fans around the globe," added Larry Rudolph, who manages Britney Spears. "Sharing her style and fashion sense through products she has developed is a testament to her authenticity as well as her commitment to and appreciation of the fans that have made it all possible."
"Britney continues to be one of the biggest pop stars in the world with numerous multi-platinum records and awards over the past 20 years. As a passionate artist, successful businesswoman and devoted mother, her strive for excellence is unparalleled," added Dell Furano, CEO of Epic Rights.
With one of the bestselling fragrance lines of all time, with Elizabeth Arden, available in over 85 countries and her recent campaign starring as the face of Kenzo, Spears and Epic Rights together, will continue to expand her brand presence in the marketplace, globally. Spears' personal involvement in all aspects of the collection will ensure authenticity across a number of targeted categories including fashion apparel, hair care, accessories, exercise and electronics. The anticipated retail launch for the Britney Spears Lifestyle program is Spring 2019.
Epic Rights will also manage Spears' e-commerce initiatives including Amazon.
Spears recently announced her tour across the U.S. and Europe, following her record-breaking, four-year headlining residency, "Britney: Piece of Me," at The AXIS at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino, where Spears received rave reviews from both critics and fans alike since opening in Dec. 2013. As the first contemporary superstar resident in the city, and with over 250 shows, the record-setting residency was sold out on a regular basis, generating over $140 million gross revenue and selling nearly 1 million tickets. Spears' tour—which sold out in minutes prompting additional shows–kicks off on July 12 in National Harbor, MD and concludes on Aug. 24 in London.
