My fans kept asking where they could get clothes like 'Destiny's Child's', so it was only natural for us to do a clothing line. I was adamant about not putting my name on something that I didn't love.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE

I'm not opposed to doing a fashion line, but I want to make sure it's the right thing and make sure its something people actually want instead of putting out a bunch of stuff that's already been done.
Even as a kid, I wore J.C. Penney plain-pocket jeans because they were plain pockets. I didn't want anybody's name on my backside. I personally don't like to wear clothing that is named for somebody or has someone's likeness all over it.
I never want to put my name on something that I don't love or wouldn't wear myself.
I was the first actress who branded her own line at a time when everyone just lent their name to a product. Everyone said I shouldn't do it, but it was probably the best thing I've ever done.
I have always loved clothes, and the opportunity to design my own line could not be missed. It's a dream job.
I just figure if it has my name on it, and I want to make people feel good about wearing it, I can't pass it off.
The reason why I started the clothing line Licious is because I had trouble finding clothes for my body type. I figured if I'm having trouble finding clothes for me, being curvy, I know girls with my body type are probably facing the same issue. And so with the help of my designer, I came up with the idea of creating my own clothing line.
I love clothes. No brands want to dress me.
We've always wanted to do a clothing line, and I personally love doing stuff with my sisters; I think it makes the whole process that much better.
