Whitney Port: I inspired my new collection

10th January 2011

(Cover) - EN Star Style - Whitney Port thinks her Spring 2011 collection represents her personal aesthetic.

The 25-year-old fashionista catapulted to international fame in hit reality show The Hills, and in 2008 debuted her own clothing line called Whitney Eve.

The stylish star is thrilled with how the range is progressing, and thinks this springs garments are a true reflection of her unique fashion sense. The beauty sought inspiration from two of Americas top fashion destinations when creating the line, which she thinks offers carefree style.

Im inspired by so many different things. I think for the Spring 2011 Collection it was really a mix of my Los Angeles aesthetics and my New York aesthetics. Its kind of like that easy going vibe of Los Angeles mixed with that more sophisticated street style of New York, she beamed.

And, I love colour! I work with this print artist in the United Kingdom who helped me develop some really cool prints that I think represented my personal aesthetic, and I use them in more fun, flirty silhouettes.

Whitney also cites her parents Jeffery and Vicki Lyn with giving her major encouragement in her career. The artistic pair taught Whitney a great deal about life in the fashion world, which shes extremely grateful for.

Well, influencesI really grew up in the fashion industry. My dad had been working in the apparel industry for forever, and my mom is an artist and art teacher, so I think the mix of those two definitely had a major influence on me becoming a fashion designer, she told the NYLA Report.
