Fashion model Coco Rocha is set to launch a ready-to-wear collection that is inspired by architecture. Although Rocha has already helped to design a set of handbags for 'Borkier,' now it seems as though the model is trying her hand at creating a full-fledged clothing line.
The 'CO+CO' collection is part of a joint venture between Rocha, her husband and the 'Paragon Project.' The line will feature stylish women's streetwear that has been inspired by architecture. The line will feature 60 different styles, all of which will be priced between $80 and $300. Despite the affordable price tag, the pieces will boast high-quality designs and construction. As Rocha has been quoted saying, "I'm all about quality, materials and construction."
While the collection is still shrouded in mystery, the line is set to launch sometime in 2016.
