Divorce good for business: Katie Holmes' fashion line suddenly a sensation
(page 1 of 3) View Entire Story

In 2009, Katie Holmes joined forces with celebrity stylist Jeanne Yang to launch the upscale fashion line Holmes & Yang. Little attention was given to the high-end, boutique collection, as it was only affordable to the ultra rich, high-fashion set.

That all changed when Holmes divorced Tom Cruise.

The Holmes & Yang line is currently limited for purchase at select Barney's stores across the country and Harvey Nichols in London. A clerk from the Beverly Hills Barney's told us that in the wake of Holmes's high-profile divorce, her line has been selling particularly well. The New York store concurred that the celebrity-designed collection had been doing very well since the split, and a Dallas representative noted that while they don't sell the line, they are now getting queries about it from enthusiastic shoppers.

And soon you may not have to go to Barney's to get your Katie-designed duds. Days after Holmes filed for divorce and sole custody; the label said they would also be showing their collection for the first time at New York Fashion Week this September.
