Marie Claire news: Amy Winehouse

She may not necessarily be known for her style choices, but Amy Winehouse is reportedly in talks to create her very own fashion collection.

Set to join the ranks of celebrity designers, the Back to Black singer is in negotiations with label Fred Perry, according to The Sun, and has been bragging to friends that a line is already in the works.

Winehouse was overheard sharing the news with holidaymakers in St Lucia, where she is currently enjoying a break with friends and family.

A source revealed to the paper, 'She was almost childishly excited and couldn't stop talking about it.'

Following a tumultuous 2008, Winehouse may be best known for her troubled love-life and reported addictions, but she has been held up as a style star by industry icons such as Karl Lagerfeld.

Speaking of the singer, the Chanel designer mused, 'She's a style icon. She is a beautiful, gifted artist. And I very much like her hairdo. I took it as an inspiration.'
