usa - the house of emanuel ungaro is going hard for 2008. hot on the heels of a haute and well-heeled collection by new designer estaban cortazar (see below) they are now set to announce a new fragrance deal. according to today's womens wear daily, avon and ungaro are close to announcing their collaboration, which would see avon producing a signature fragrance for the french couture label. even more, hollywood starlet reese witherspoon is on board to front the brand in print and television ads. WOW! i can't wait to see this project. kudos to avon too which is building it's high end market. this is not their first time collaborating with high end designers. in the past they have worked with christian lacroix and cynthia rowley.
