Just because Lauren Conrad's clothing line died doesn't mean the era of celebrity designers is coming to an end. As part of her ongoing effort to graduate from a mere rock-star-marrying Oscar-winner to a full-fledged lifestyle brand, Gwyneth Paltrow has teamed up with French label ZOEtee's on a seven-piece collection. "The fashions — crafted in fabrics such as cashmere blends, recycled cotton and wool mesh — are billed to be a mélange of Seventies glamour, rock inspiration and men's casual suiting," reports WWD, adding that the proceeds will go to a charity called Kids Company. Meanwhile, New York magazine dug up the name of Rachel Zoe's new collection. Perhaps you won't be surprised to learn that she's planning to call it "I Die."
