Livestream shopping network, HSN, has released the kathy ireland Outerwear collection on HSN.com. It will present the collection live with Kathy Ireland on HSN and across the network’s streaming platforms on Thursday, Oct. 6 at 9 p.m EST. 

The HSN launch features a variety of outerwear, including the London Faux Leather French Topper and the Coat of Many Colors Artisanal Wool Trench, available in a classic color palette and prints. HSN will offer all styles at the same price point in sizes XS-3X. The outerwear collection will be exclusive to HSN for 30 days. 

“Kathy Ireland is recognized for her work as a designer, author and philanthropist, and we can’t wait to introduce our HSN customers to her alongside her timeless collection,” says Bridget Love, general merchandise manager, vice president, merchandising, HSN. “We know our customers will enjoy the opportunity to shop this iconic global brand while hearing from Kathy directly about her most recent endeavor with outerwear.” 

Ireland’s fashion career began when she was 16, walking fashion runways, gracing dozens of covers of top magazines and becoming a supermodel and fashion icon. Ireland’s solely owned company, which began in 1993, is No. 19 worldwide and the most successful woman-owned design and licensing firm in the world, according to License Global. Earlier this year, kathy ireland Worldwide (kiWW) received honors from WWD (Women’s Wear Daily) as “Today, it’s (kiWW) the highest-ranking woman-owned licensing business in American history.” Earlier this year, kiWW entered an agreement with Bagatelle International to produce outwear, denim and dresses.

“We are delighted to launch our beautiful outerwear collection, which is available only on HSN,” says Ireland. “For decades, we’ve carefully considered our distribution plans. Once we began our collaboration with Bagatelle for outerwear, denim and special-occasion dressing, we believe that these exquisite clothes must be talked about, shared and seen. HSN is the premier platform to share the story around this line with the women we serve all over America. Our new outerwear designs are so on trend and yet not trendy. Each item is designed to celebrate the beauty of each woman without compromising quality. HSN aligns with our demand of inclusivity, and we look forward to bringing our beautiful collections to this wonderful journey, which enriches the lives of the women who love HSN and our brand.”    

“We are thrilled to be launching kathy ireland Outerwear on HSN,” say Jon Carrasco, creative director, and Stephen Roseberry, president/chief marketing officer, kathy ireland Worldwide, in a joint statement. “The collection was designed and curated to celebrate women of every size, shape, age and color. Kathy’s excitement is extraordinary, and we’ve never seen Kathy and her team work harder to bring stellar apparel to the market to share it with our customers.”
