It was like an army of Winehouse clones marching down the Paris runway. The models were all done up in beehive wigs off various colors, thick winged eyeliner and even Winehouse’s iconic drawn on mole.

The dress was designed by Thailand-based designer Disaya, and was purchased by the Foundation Museo de la Moda in Chili.
The proceeds from the sale of dress all went to the Amy Winehouse Foundation, created by Amy’s family. According to a statement on their website, the Amy Winehouse foundation, “has been set up in Amy’s memory to support charitable activities in both the UK and abroad that provide help, support or care for young people, especially those who are in need by reason of ill health, disability, financial disadvantage or addiction.”
When Amy wore the dress she was virtually unknown. The white strapless dress featured pink polka-dots and was relatively simple. When Amy set out to photograph the album cover her stylist, Louise Winwood, searched for clothes for the shoot and found Thai designer Disaya who would loan out the dress to newcomer Winehouse.
Who knew that album would go on to sell 3.2 million copies.

"When Fred Perry came to us to ask what we would like to do with the new collection it was natural to continue," Winehouse's father Mitch said in a statement.
"Amy loved working on both collections and would want them to be made available. All the money we make and the donation that Fred Perry will give will go straight into to the Amy Winehouse Foundation which we are setting up to help children and young people in her name."

Her collection looks like all the clothes we see her wearing with those hideous ballet flats.
Amy Winehouse: The Fashion Designer
When speaking about her line, Amy told Glamour magazine, "The collection I've done is so classic, because their style and my style are pretty much the same. Fred Perry is my be all and end all. I've always loved it, always worn it, and it feels like a living dream."
Amy Winehouse is so 2008! Does anyone even care for her anymore? She wasted all her talents when she got caught up in the drugs and unfortunately people stopped caring for her.

Since her music career is at a stand still right now, she has decided to try her hand at designing clothes.
Amy will be launching a clothing line in partnership with British label Fred Perry. The line will debut in stores in October.
“Amy has been wearing Fred Perry for years, so we were aware she was a genuine fan of the brand,” said Richard Martin, Fred Perry’s marketing director. “Amy has a unique sense of style that reflects the brand’s own historical reference points.”
“She is a loyal fan of classic Fred Perry product, so that is what the designs were focused on developing,” added Martin. The collection will wholesale $32 and $150 and she is committed for four seasons.

According to InStyle, Amy has teamed up with designer Carolina Herrera to create a custom wardrobe to wear throughout her pregnancy.
Amy says they even made her custom outfits for her press tour for her upcoming film Leap Year. “They made my clothes for the entire press tour. They’re amazing. They did such a great job,” she said.
And just this past week, the mom-to-be stepped out two different times—once on Good Morning America on which Amy wore an aqua wool crepe dress. One day later, she stepped out in a gray mélange belted coat with red satin trim paired with a silk mulberry dress for a taping of The Late Show with David Letterman. And last night, Amy looked gorgeous in a silk georgette dress at the premiere for Leap Year.
Amy’s got it made! To look stylish while pregnant? That’s every woman’s dream!

They want to capture her "smoky" look and smell. So they're going to capture the smell of crack and bottle it?
A source said: "Mitch is keen to license Amy's name to a perfume house. He has been in talks with manufacturers and contacted PR firms for advice.
"They want it to reflect her style with a classic smoky 1950s look and smell. Amy is keen to expand her brand and wants to get on the celebrity perfumes bandwagon while she can.
"They know her fans love to copy her style. Her trademark fashion and beehive hair-do were last year's must-have look."
Word of advice to Mitch and Amy's people: no one wants to smell like Amy Winehouse. No one wants to look like Amy Winehouse. Instead of trying to market a perfume that isn't going to sell, you should be concentrating on cleaning her up a little. She may be "clean" now, but she still pretty much looks wasted all the time. Just a thought. Would you want to smell like Amy?

Amy is reportedly going to be designing for London-based label PPQ. And just to give you an idea, the last “celeb” the company teamed up with was Peaches Geldof. So they tend to like the hot messes.
According to Marie Claire UK, Amy will reportedly design a capsule collection for Amy Molyneaux and Percy Parker's fashion line, set to be a homage to the starlet's look.
Molyneaux says: "Yes there have been talks with Amy and we are now in the first stages of the project. The range will be all about high-end statement pieces, inspired by Amy's style. For example, maybe a dress or an amazing piece of jewelery like a bracelet. It's going to be distributed online, we are going to be providing all materials and doing the design, but Amy will definitely be involved in the creative process."
The last thing London needs are more people dressing like Wino! Hopefully she’ll stay away from ballet slippers and ill-fitting dresses!
