Gwen Stefani's Next Act: Spring L.A.M.B. FashionsWhen Gwen Stefani takes the stage during New York Fashion Week, she won't be belting out chart-topping songs.
Instead, she'll be showing off, well, belts, among other things.
The spring collection of L.A.M.B. features sweet floral frocks in prints of wisteria and chrysanthemums, and there'll be hard-core, edgy details like padlocks and chains, too.
L.A.M.B., which stands for Love, Angel, Music, Baby, hits the runway Sept. 16, the finale of eight days of fashion previews for spring 2006.
It's the same slot that Jennifer Lopez's Sweetface collection filled last season.
Stefani says she's not jumping on the celebrity fashion designer bandwagon for a quick ride.
What she hopes sets her apart from the crowd is her attention to detail. "L.A.M.B. is a fashion line that -- fingers crossed -- will just get more and more sophisticated.
What's different than what's out there is the way I put things together. And, if you look inside the pants, you'll find secret details in there."
Stefani says she's learning to navigate the bumps of the industry, including production delays and expensive fabrics, and that she's ready for some criticism -- the constructive kind, she hopes -- from fashion editors and retail buyers after her big show.
She's getting help from designer Zaldy and creative consultant Andrea Lieberman.
