Penelope Cruz and her sister Monica are set to design a line of clothing together for cheap retail outlet Mango in Spain. The article says it’s the Spanish equivalent of H&M, but I’ve also seen that chain in Germany. It’s one of those stores that’s full of cheaply made clothes that teens and 20-somethings would wear out. I’ve tried a few things on, but it’s always in vain beause they didn’t fit well and seemed made for stick figures and/or girls who don’t mind wearing super-tight revealing clothing.

Time to add another celebrity designer to the mix. It was announced Wednesday that Penelope Cruz and her 25-year-old sister Monica will design a 25-piece collection for Mango, the Spanish equivalent to H&M.

Not ones to remain backstage, the Spanish beauties will also be the faces of the company’s fall-winter campaign. But what most don’t know is that this not a freshman effort for the acting sisters – they already design a collection of jewelry and handbags for Samantha Thavasa, as well as own a store, Amarcord, in Madrid’s Salamanca area.

I guess it might not turn out so bad. I’m not a fan of H&M, either. To me those are the type of clothes that always look better on the hanger and end up being dissappointing one you try them on.
