Footwear and accessories designer Steve Madden will delve into the bed and bath category for the first time through a deal with Revman International.

The new Steve Madden bed and bath collection will feature sheets, comforters, decorative pillows, window treatments, throws, beach and bath towels, bath rugs, accessories and other items. The line will be available at specialty retail and department stores in spring 2009.

"Introducing bedding and bath merchandise marks a significant milestone for us as we continue to diversify into additional merchandise categories," says Edward Rosenfield, chief executive officer of Steve Madden. "We are pleased that this new bedding and bath line will expand the company's offerings for our existing retail partners as well as enable us to extend into new specialty retailers."

Revman International will have the exclusive rights to design, manufacture, market and distribute the Steve Madden-branded products. The manufacturer currently produces bed and bath merchandise for Tommy Hilfiger, Michael Kors, Perry Ellis, Tracy Reese, Tommy Bahama, Laura Ashley and more.
