Actress Kerry Washington is teaming up with costume designer Lyn Paolo, in partnership with Elliot Staples, head of design from US retailer The Limited, to create a fashion line inspired by her hit American TV drama, Scandal.


Commenting on the collection, Washington said: "By creating a line inspired by the show, we are introducing a collection that embodies the elegance and power of the Scandal aesthetic for real-life gladiators and everyday fashionistas.

"The collection is a nod to our devoted fans, to fans of fashion and to women everywhere who are inspired to boldly pursue their passions and look good while doing it."

Paolo added: "The whole team took great care in creating a collection that reflects Olivia Pope's unique style. We believe the collection tells a story of confidence and professional sophistication as well as maintaining a strong feminine point of view. It has been a joy, as always, to collaborate with Kerry and now also with The Limited team who have been amazing.”

Launching for autumn/winter, the line will include looks inspired by Scandal's protagonist, Olivia Pope, played by Washington and will include tops, pants, jackets and outerwear. Prices will range from 49 – 248 dollars and will be available in The Limited stores as well as online from late September.

The collection marks the first ever Hollywood design collaboration between a national retailer, network TV show, its costume designer and star of the programme.
