You probably couldn&#8217;t go into a shopping mall without seeing it, either.<\/p>\n<p>Her hit parade includes the lavender skirt actress Sharon Stone paired with a Gap shirt at the Oscars in 1998, Chelsea Clinton&#8217;s crystal-waistband wedding gown in 2010 and the rose-printed gray jacquard chiffon blouse and evening robe worn with gray rose-printed pants that closed her last catwalk show at New York Fashion Week.<\/p>\n<p>She has a lower-priced line at Kohl&#8217;s and another one at David&#8217;s Bridal. She&#8217;s developed a fragrance business and home-goods collection.
